hello, i was wondering what else i could change on my gilera rcr/smt 50 because i have already added or changed parts such as
-carbon reeds
-boost bottle
-forks (crashed with the last pair)
-wheels(dirt wheels to silks)
-engine(2006 engine blew up so replaced with 2008 engine)
-performance exhaust
-k&n airfilter
-rejetted carb

i was wondering if theres anything else which i could change that would make it any quicker Smile thanks -jeol=

I'd say stop, before it's too late and according to your list it is Smile

The only thing that you can actually do is another bike, performance stuff is waste of money = no gain and increased service intervals Thumbs Up

Well, that's the way to go, do not invest any more money into that 50cc, unless it's inevitable, sell it and get that 125. Thumbs Up

As I've said, any performance stuff is waste of money that'll change every nice decent bike into a money pit.

A performance exhaust and boost bottle needed to pass a mot were you live? Im sure (slik) tires are illegal on the road. Thinking

Why dont you stop wasting money and start saving for a 125?

I'd be massively surprised if what you have done has improved your bike at all, to be honest it's probably just made it more unreliable

50cc is not worth attempting to tune, you could spend 10x the bikes value and still not be as powerfull as a 125, so just buy a 125. Even there not worth modifying tbh

Do you still have all the stock parts?

I'd put them all back on for the MOT.
