    Hello everyone! I'm from Norway, and my English writing is not good, but I hope you understand.

    I wonder if someone has driven a scooter(in this case an yamaha aerox) with a lower gear than standard? For better acceleration and lower top speed. My aerox standard gearing is
    primary 13/52 and secondary 14/43 which then constitutes an RF(reduction factor) at 12.29
    If I for example switches secondary gear to 13/52, the RF will be at 16 ( instead of 12 ,3 as standard)
    Do you think it will greatly increase the acceleration from the bottom of, and be easy to take a "wheelie"? Could that case was fun to tried.
    This is about an aerox with Malossi sport 70cc cylinder.
    best regards Jonas

    Not a good idea. You will easily over rev the gearbox and blow it with that kit fitted. If you want to wheelie, then learn how to do it. You can easily tune that bike to lift by itself, you staying in the seat though is a different matter.

    best is to use lighter rollers, i know there is one on stord who has a 50 that wheelies easy.
