    Hey guys.
    I'm looking at tuning my Piaggio typhoon but I don't know where to start. I want to start of with inexpensive tuning. Just so it gives it a little performance increase. I just don't know where to start so I can make some performance increases.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated :D

    what is inexpensive tuning ? do you have a budget the best cheapish mod on a stock bike is a decent pipe and upjet

    Well I don't want to be spending hundreds and hundreds of pounds at the moment as I don't have that sort of money. I was thinking of getting a decent pipe, upjetting it and adding rollers. But I want it as a gradual thing so I can build it up over time when I have the money to do so

    That's pretty decent. Is there anything you can recommend getting?

    I have a Laser Pro-X exhaust, that a 50 could work with....and up jet a couple of sizes, and stiffer springs....and try Dr. Pulley sliders.....they will get you better acceleration, for a lot cheaper than a new variator!
    Depending on your carb size, I would pick up a 17.5 Deloroto, they seem to be cheap, because everyone wants to get the bigger ones, and upgrade.....Also, a Malossi Red air filter is cheap enough to buy.....
    Add a cheap 70cc sport iron cylinder......and you are faster than most out there......
