    Are forks standardized on scooters? could I just get any old forks and bang 'em on?

    Also I was wondering about engine mods? Whats the easiest and simplest way to add a bit more oomph to its performance other than an exhaust?

    a 70 kit is a bigger cylinder head and piston,
    which means more bhp.

    If the cubic capacity is increased and more fuel is being exploded surely that means you will go through your petrol a lot quicker? My jog does not have the largest tank on it, and up here once you are out of the town you often don't see a petrol station for aaaages.

    On another note if I bought these -

    What other stuff do I need on my list to get them fitted? If indeed they will fit that is. Also I would like to jack the arse end up a bit higher, how do I do that?

    Many Thanks!

    jack up kit for back end :rofl:

    those first aerox forks are a BARGAIN at that price, normally go for around that or a little more used, just for the forks. Probably pay around £3-400 for that new

    For starters fuel burns it doesnt explode
    If you go for a bigger cylinder you may and quite likely find you need a smaller jet not a larger one

    Its the gases the petrol gives off the make the explosion in the cylinder. If you was to drop a match in a petrol can it would go out. Although don't try. lol

    The prices off them forks are good.
