So I have been reading on here and ScootDawg since Sept. of last year when I bought my first ever scooter. I have been buying and selling fixer uppers since as a hobby because not much money can be made in PCB on used scooters. After tinkering around with and learning about scooters and how they work I have decided to start my own 50cc speed monster, if you can call them that. This morning I ordered this BBK kit. www.spi-parts.com/gy6-airsal-81cc-big-bore-cylinder-kit-02350150.html and I will slowly be adding more parts over the summer in my quest for the 45-50 mph. I will be asking a lot of questions and posting a lot of pics as the build is in progress. Now all I can do is wait on my BBK being sent flat rate shipping from California to Florida. Excited as one can be right now. Let the fun begin. Attachments:

Good luck on your bbk! You'll be able to reach 50mph no problem once you install your bbk and taller gears. Until you install taller gears you're physically limited to 45-50mph, but scrappydogscooter's performance gears on ebay will mean you can go over 50mph. My top speed with the bbk and without taller gears was 46mph downhill. With taller gears my top speed is 51mph on flat terrain. And I weigh a hefty 267lbs!

I have followed your build and have it booked marked for easy locating along with a few other. We are about the same weight so 45-50 is my goal. Thanks for great info you shared this week about your build.

Running a 50mm BBK with stock air box and exhaust what range of jets should I buy? I already have a performance air intake from a scrap scooter that I saved just in case I have a issue with running to rich.

Is there a good place to order jets besides Scrappy. It looks like they have nothing between the and . I was thinking I would need a and 92 also just to play it safe.

Not sure if this is correct or not but it says they shipped priority. I only payed for flat rate. I'll find out I guess when USPS updates so I can use the tracking number.

BBK came in and man this thing seems tiny. It's the first time I have seen a piston for a scooter. Instructions could be a little better But I'm sure I will get it figured out with the help of everyone here. My biggest question would be the order the rings go on. Time to start looking for stuff online that might help.
