But to answer your question, I presume it depends on the cc of the scooter?? You buy a GTS300 you know it's gonna be quicker than a TL125. You want the TL125 to go quicker.....you tune it.

Yes, I get your point. And my response is...they don't 'need' to, it's a choice and all cc relative and has nothing to do with being new. How does being new alter the fact it's just a 125cc scooter? Speed and power are not linked to it being new, they are a result of power, revs and gearing.mark1 wrote: My point is why would someone buy a brand new bike and then need to spend money to get it to keep up with modern traffic.

I thought the idea of buying a new scooter was to get performance, reliability and fuel economy as standard. Also if you fit these aftermarket accessories does this void your warranty?
It seems a bit of an arse about face way of doing things.

Some people want to tune and engine so it can keep up with modern traffic or to improve on 50 year old technology. Some people want to expand the boundaries if what is possible and make a shopping moped to go over 100 mph.

Great till you hit and kill some one, then plod get involved, plus insurance assors, then you insurance company drop you like a hot turd and you find yourself in court.simonwwfc wrote:I'm pretty sure that my old 179 conversion is coming up for sale as chap that bought it is saying it's too quick for him lol only as quick as you blip the throttle 24bhp if anyone's interested built by Andy at psn tuning
