Performance parts for 50cc scooters to make them Faster

There seems to be a lot of folks out there who want to speed up a 49cc or 50cc scooter. In this article, I’ll outline some fun things that you can do by yourself (DYI) to modify your scoot and ultimately make that scooter go faster. If you are not so comfortable with DYI scooter mods, or don’t want busted knuckles, then none of this will really cost too much to have done for you at a scooter repair/modification shop.

Let’s dig in a bit.

Some of these ideas will help your ride out more on the upper end, and some are more for lower end modifications. None of these scooter mods are really going to cause you to do any other upgrades, like brakes or anything.

That will give you enough stopping power for any or all of these performance upgrades.

Okay, on we go.
