No, it did not come with a new ramp plate unfortunately. I would have thought so. On my picture. Those two parts are the same correct?

They both are identical. They weigh the same and they look the same. Even the rollers are the same weight. Someone must have changed this before.

If you look at the picture, The aftermarket one that i bought is the same as the one that was on the bike. The ramp plate is the only thing that did not come with the kit i bought so i just ordered it.

try it with the ramp plat you have ... i have a rusk one in my se50 and it is a bigger one and i gain about 5 mph ...
if you want to get all you can the ramp plat is going to help you out ... the curve on the se50 is more then the se50p
se50 on the right
Image

that will bring the vearater closer together and give you more speed

you can see the old before and the after on the movable drive face ...

Image

that exter 1/4 of gain will give you more speed ..
my ramp came out of a dio motor maybe someone will sell you one on here ..

ps
in short the better ramp plat will help you more then you think...

the 85 jet is good if your running the stock air box ..
other thing you can do to pick up a little speed a 90/90/10 tire if you want you can get a 3.5 in there but it may need a little work to get it in and you may need to grind the case yo stop it from rubbing at top speed ..

circumference
2.75 = 48.69
3.5 = 53.40

you need to find out if you have the 10 to 1 or the 11 to 1 final drive .... the se50p is not a good anser mine came with a se50p jet and a se50 final drive ..
