    and so did I with my standard clock when I had a similar setup.

    Your doing about 40-45 not 50. Speed fight clocks are about 5-10mph out. Get some koso clocks and when tell me your speed. :).

    I think its more about acceleration to brag about to be fair yeah some can go 60-70 downhill but sadly everywhere isnt down hill and the time it takes you to reach that a ped with good acceleration will be gone :)

    My old Piaggio NRG did a true 72mph with a full Malossi MHR Race Spec engine, the Clock use to almost all the way around and back to the stop, I don't even think most of the digital scooter speedos are accurate past 30mph.

    that will be why, you need a new exhaust mate standard ones majority of the time kill the power the 70 can be giving out

    Really? Somethings Set Up Wrong Somwhere...
    My Aerox With Setup Below Has Touched 74mph On dyno Figures, And 71 Being followed by a someone on an SV650...

    Also A Mate Of Mine With An SR50 With Just A Yasuni Pipe Does around 60 At Clock Speed, So Take Away 5mph..

    Right. Everyone who says they do over 50. State your FULL SPECS.

    It was all set up perfectly. The gearing was the reason for it being soo slow.

    Just put a malossi gear up kit in and it now reaches 50-53mph.

    That's with the standard carb(12.5mm).

    Don't forget speedfight = Peugeot engine. On a sports setup pug engines are lucky to reach the hp figures of a piaggio engine with a sports exhaust. So are much slower.

    Oh and I have a mate who has speedfight 100 with just a Doppler exhaust on that'll do about 85mph. Really it does around 65-70. Clocks are always off and 60 on a 50 clock is really about 50mph.

    speedfight 100s, with a Malossi 120 kit, case flowed with 25mm carb, stage six induction and reeds, open air filter, PM tuning 50 exhaust, the expensive one, not the 360, Multivar variator, gear up kit, do not even reach 75mph gps.

    Tuning air cooled pugs is a frustrating business and a waste of time and money, admittedly they end up with some low down power, but nothing a piaggio 125 with a pipe couldn't manage. A guy with the above spec, apart from a 21mm carb, made 9bhp on shiny's dyno, after Shiny checking the set up. Admittedly his dyno reads low, but as a comparison, 70cc Piaggios with a half hearted tune have seen that, a well set up 172cc made 19bhp.

    I had a 100/120 and threw the towel in, I had to break it to get most of my money back, or I would be well out of pocket. I think the design of the scooter is great, shame they didn't give it an engine to match.
