I thought I would post my tune up results. I started on this a few months ago and took my time at this and here are my results.
I found that this scooter really likes 15g and 12g slider combo as it gives it good take off and really good top end.
Next, I added the 115mm variator from Monstergy6 that added about 3mph to the top end.
I changed out the air box for a filter sock and upjetted the carb which did not add too much to the top end but really added throttle response that might help getting out of trouble.
I changed out the CDI for a racing CDI that helped as well with throttle response as well with top end.
I tried a performance clutch pulley that did not work out so well so I went back to stock on that. I did change out the clutch and clutch bell to a NCY assembly that really helped to sustain speeds on hills.
After all this, I manage to maintain a speed of 59mph and have hit 67mph down hill with the wind at my back. This was all verified using a Tom Tom. I know some have said that the Chinometers are usually off but mine seems to be spot on.
My mileage has dropped from 78mpg to 65mpg but I can live with this. I am more comfortable having a little throttle left rather than running wot. I am 6' 3" and weigh 270lbs.
I hope this helps out a new Linhai owner with a starting point for a tune up project.
