Hi Ramblinman Sounds like you have one of those secret 63's. Many scooters were made with a 44mm kit and sold as a 49cc.. Any way expecting double the power I don't believe is realistic even if it were a 39mm piston..
It will give you more power for climbing hills, holding speed in the wind, but probably not much more top end.. But that depends on your variator setup and weights. If your variator was opening up all the way with the 63 then you won't get any more speed, just get there faster. I think it's worth it, I believe you will notice a difference...

Hi Everyone, Been working on Scooters off and on a long time... Over the years I have kept many parts I simply don't need. Recently I moved into a bigger place and it's still full LOL. So I need to get rid of some of these parts. Here is a Used cam for a 50cc 139qmb. I'm asking 5.00 plus shipping. I'm thinking shipping should not be more than $ 5.00 Here is a clutch assembly for a 139qmb, It came with the long case motor I bought from Scrappy. Asking $ 5.00 for it plus shipping again I'm guessing shipping will be about $ 5.00 USPS. I never used it, instead I swapped it out for the Hoca clutch assembly that was in Fawkes old engine.. So it's never been used.. Here's a clutch Bell. ( Used ) Original equipment from Fawkes old engine, 139qmb short case. Asking also $ 5.00 plus shipping again I'm thinking shipping will be about $ 5.00 USPS.. Here's a coil for a 139qmb, just don't need it, asking $ 5.00 for it too. Plus shipping again I'm guessing it will be around $ 5.00.. Have many more that i will be posting in this thread, if anyone is interested please PM me.. Take care all Larry

Hello piratescooter82 I would start by adjusting your valves..

Ok, still don't know what to say, the battery in question was brand new from scrappy dog, the only thing wrong with it was I drained it using my 12 v Impact.. It has worked fine ever since i charged it and just threw it away two days ago.. So I got a little over three years use with it.. I don't know what was wrong or why, I honestly don't have your knowledge of batteries and electrical systems.. I can only tell you what happened... It's all water under the bridge now, I don't even use a scooter battery on Fawkes any more..
I use a 330 cca lawnmower battery that is kept under my seat, I use the old battery compartment to house my CDI and other electrical components for quick and easy access.. After Fawkes was broken into and his battery stolen ( I was running two batteries wired in parallel one was under the seat, they didn't get that one ) but in getting the other they ripped up half my wiring.., I changed the location where i could lock it up and went to just one battery, only bigger in cca. Ever since then I've only used the scrappy battery to run my 12v impact when needed, and Ive been using the bigger battery for 1 1/2 years in Fawkes, have had no problems what so ever.. ... So all is good now..

I predict trailer failure. The weight of any object exponentially increases as speed increases. A tire and rim barely able to support speeds of 30 mph and a weight around 150-200 will not do well with 60-70 at 45-50. use scooter parts like they said... I wouldn't want 70 pounds of unpredictable mass behind me on a bike that strictly forbids trailering in the owner's manual... BTW 6 gallons of fuel might not weigh much but it will slosh about in ways your passenger wouldn't. Besides all that on long trips short fuel stops are your friend... Well I'm thinking roughly 2 to 3 hours seat time before refill, I know a short break was a blessing when i was riding long distances... Used to ride miles a day one way to work then miles back.. Would often stop at a midpoint gas station, top off, use the restroom, grab a drink then go again..

I'm not altogether sure i would trust the engineering specs, After all is your speedo accurate ? For most of us not so much.

Well the only one I would not have gotten is the 12v impact wrench if your battery is not fully charged it will effect the impact wrench. I would have gotten the 120v plug in house socket one. I'm very happy with my 12v impact wrench. It only takes 2-3 hits and the nut is loose, so it really doesn't take much juice from the battery. I carry it under my seat with a socket set, and a spare belt strapped to the frame, so I know I will never be stranded on the side of the road by a belt failure. Well I agree, I'm very happy with my 12V Impact.. Last time I actually used it, I was doing a complete top end rebuild on Fawke's new engine.. I used it on just about every bolt. When I was done, did a compression check, put the engine back in the scooter, dropped the same battery i used to power the impact, hit the button and the engine fired right up.. So based on that I don't believe they use that much power..

Not gonna dump a bunch of money in it all the parts are already on it. Gonna get the stroker first and if it hits 60 I'm done. Probably won't ride it much since I have my 150 Well I understand, but i got to tell you one of the best parts of having a stroker is the sandbagging, LOL. When your scoot performs on par with a 150 but looks like a 50 it can be a lot of fun.. Can't tell you how many people at work thought Fawkes was just a 50 until they herd him start up, even then never expected that 50 to keep up with them.... It was fun, but if id been smarter i would have bet them money LOL... Keep us posted..

Well if it does tear up variators, id look into a two stroke variator and have a good machine shop custom build the boss to fit the 139 and 2 stroke variator together , Two stroke's run higher rpm's yet pull about the same weight, and that may the ticket.
I em thinking it would work, the only thing I'm not sure of is the OD of the 2 stroke variator.

Guy I sold my tap out maxed scooter to offered it back at 400 dollars only put 100 miles on it never wrecked it. Gonna take it back next weekend plan to put a stroker and a taller gear set on it probably 17 41. It has a 52mm bbk and hoca big valve head it will be a true 110cc gonna run it with a 26mm cvk pumper carb. 60 mph will be achieved Cool about tapout coming back :-) , you know how i feel about strokers Millsc hehehe, but really you don't need 26mm carb, that stroker will get you to 60 with just a 52mm kit, a big valve head, 20mm carb, A9 cam and 17/49 gears.. Actually you will probably get more like 62 or 63 mph out of it..

I do think your 40 MPH average speed over several days is a bit aggressive for a 150. I suggest a three day round trip over a long weekend averaging 40 MPH. Make sure those are real miles, not chinometer miles. If after you return home on the third day you are ready to climb on the scooter the next day and do the three day trip again then the trip is feasible. Watch the weight, it adds up fast. For example a six gallon marine tank full of fuel, assuming you stop at six gallons and don't fill the expansion space as well, is going to weigh -- 6 gallons times 6 pounds per gallon plus the 20? pound tank is about 55 pounds, plus plumbing. The trailer to haul it is another 20 to 60 pounds that will have to be hauled up hill by the motor and stopped going down hill by the brakes. Good luck. Id have to agree about the weight... The trailer i was looking at i doubt weight 10 pounds, the parts I suggested and tools, maybe 20 pounds, I would think with the mpg's these scooters get he would not need 6 gallons of fuel, I em thinking more like a 2 or three gallons would be a sufficient backup supply..
