Should you do it yourself? Well, that can be the fun part.
My people not only want there scooter to look cooler or be more power, they want to enjoy the process of doing the work themselves.
It can be very rewarding hanging out in the garage, tearing your scooter apart, and putting it back together and coming out with a different product.

If you want your wheel to go faster, make sure you have someone take you 0-60 speed.

Things you can modify to get better speed are: oUsing a free flowing air filter.
The more air you can force in the faster you will be able to go.
oUsing a performance exhaust.
The fast you can force the air OUT, the fast you can go.
oReconfigure or replace the carburetor or changing the ignition timing.
oIf you really want to go for it you can try modifying the cylinders and changing the cylinder head and camshaft.
