    Hi,

    I bought my aerox 50 in March this year, it did about 55-60mph then with 17000 mile on the clock. Ive been riding it almost everyday since then and over the last 2 months ive noticed its slowing down gradually. Does about 47 now lol and its done just over 20000 miles.

    Ive got a week off college now so im hoping to get it back to how it was.

    Mods

    22mm carb (I know its too big for a standard 50)
    Gianelli pipe

    Im going to buy a new belt, rollers and some caustic soda to clear the carbon out of the pipe.

    Is there anything you reccommend doing?

    Thanks

    probably not tbh... just find a low mialage engine or rip it down.. will be due new mains soon anyway so time for a full rebuild/new engine. why chase your tail fixing one thing if another is gona break.. will just end up spending more and taking ages.. get it done in one go.. got 20,000 good miles all over again then ay
