gilera dna 50, 70 kit HELP!!!!

[stephen8137]

Hi everyone,Hi,

I have a gilera dna 50 and have bought a leovinci zx chrome exhaust. i am desperate to make it faster and really want a 70 kit. however, i know a couple of people that have had problems with 70 kits on their dna's. is this normal? i want a 70 kit but dont want to mess my bike up. i also heard a rumour saying it only happens with new bikes, my bike is a 52 reg.

Thanks

fittin any b/bore can fuk thngs, just jet it right and run it in. 70cc isnt too bad a hike...should be ok.

i get about 52 mph at the moment. i would like a faster acceleration as well

[simon1221]

with a leovince zx exhaust you will be looking at about 55-60mph flat out

as the bike has about another 1 bhp, you will have to change the gearing (or rollers), otherwise it will be at 13000rpm at 60mph all the time

as mine did:

50mph @ 9000rpm
55mph @ 11000rpm
60mph (only just, with a tailwind down a hill) @ 12000rpm

being that it redlines at 12000 ish it would be advisable to get a 'gear up kit'

it is also advisable to get a 'sports clutch', as the standard one is pretty crap and any different exhausts will give you strange engine characteristics

52 isnt that new, 2 and a half years old

a 70s kit should get you to the 65mph mark, but with the amount of money you have to spend i would advise you to just stick with the exhaust and add maybe a different air filter,

the cost of a 70s kit (malossi ones are the most popular) is well over £100 alone, bearing in mind that you will have to get a different carb or jetting, a gear up kit and a sports clutch to get that far you will be looking at a lot of money on parts, plus the cost of labour to fit it, unless you do it yourself

***those speeds were downhill by the way***

a gear up kit would actually give you worse acceleration i think

the person you need to talk to is binge, as he has a scooter with a 70s kit on and everything else you need

oh and btw i thought i may add that a 70s kit at 16 will invalidate your insurance, but so does derestricting it in the first place

[simon1221]
