unfortunately, fitting a 70cc kit is not just a bolt on. When upgrading you have to remember that this moped was designed to be 50cc, the clutch and variator are disigned for a 50cc, and the crank, which is the heart of the engine, is only made for the stress of a 50cc. When you consider that a 70cc kit may kick out a fair bit more power than what the moped does now, some major upgrades are gonna need doing. Honestly, 50ccs are not worth tuning-you just end up with a unreliable bike. for the time and effort involved for a 70cc kit, you would spend the same amount on a decent 125.

A great deal of work has to go into a bike to get 20% more power. On a 50cc thats going to be about 2bhp, not really worth it.

You will spend and spend and spend then realise one day, 'shit! I could have used the money I've spent on this pile to get something bigger and had double the horsepower I've now got.' That is if you're lucky. If you're not then you will just hear BANG and be reduced to 0 BHP. In summary, its not worth it mate.
