first key to more power is better breathing
carb, pipe, air filter are easy

Yea every thing was working until i let my friend ride it
pieces of the tank where it holds the screws broke of now i cant put everything back and the front was mounted by an L bracket and my friend didn't tighten it all the way so it came apart and the front right signal is out and some way the back light are busted might just get new fairings for it

How fast should she go with carb cleaning and a better pipe and how much would it be to get a better pipe?

58.3 mph with those mods, unless you poop first, then you will hit 58.7 mph
its not likely you would be happy with the 110 so i would recommend just getting a new motor, the bigger ones are very fast

LMAO! Hes right though, nowadays everyone is sporting a 125cc or higher. But 58.7 mph isn't bad. Going 50 on one of these bikes is pretty fun though so I would reccomend you seeing what your motor is capable of doing and then if your not satisfied going for the bigger engines.
And the reason why I asked about the lights was because the "newer" models have a restrictor on the carb.

hope this is the right place to ask. i have a Stock x-18. 16 tooth Front, 38 tooth rear (gears). and I topped out at 46mph (75kmh). I ordered the 28 tooth rear. Anyone know what kinda gain I can expect from this?
And with my oil leak, I might end up getting a new motor, so should I wait on a Carb and Filter till then? or can I get one that will work on Stock, AND still be good for the new motor, which will be........?????????
Stock runs Great, leak and all so, in no hurry to change out motor (bikes only month old)

the 28 tooth sprocket should give a noticably higher top speed but your acceleration will suffer. if i were you i would wait for a new motor. i think that you would get bored with that 110 pretty soon

Bored Now, lol. Just can't afford to drop another Large amount on this bike till next season. Only minor mods this year. ie gearing, Mod stock muffler (on stage 1 of 5) new Plug maybe.
But I'm also NOT a racer (due to the fact there Is NO SuperPocket Racing legues in Canada, only 50cc, and even Them are scarce.) I just ride the bike Daily, too and from work, around the hood, ect.
Not legal, but I'm not far from work, and I know most of the ppl on the route so..... they just smile and wave, lol.
just want to make the bike a Little bit faster to be able to Pass a slow-a** driver if they get in my way. Keep up just fine now, just need a bit more top-end to pass.

Na you cant tell me as if i was riding on a football field or something i was just asking becasue when i ride 1 block i get to 30 or 35 but i think it can be the way i shift.. if you shift to fast or slow can it effect your overall speed? :dunno:

58 mph? are the manuals and semi autos that much different? My piece only goes 44 mph strung wide open at the 8th mile geared 14/38.
I still have a stock carb tho and stock pipe, but it breaths good enough. My intake is modified and the carb has the needle adjusted
i just cant see my bike pickin up 14 mph just with a carb change and a air filter

dak, ya the way you shift will affect your quickness, not the overall top speed
it sounds reasonable for your speed to go 35 in a block
stuntin, i just said 58, fact is you dont know till you try and time it
but i did hit 60mph on my stock 110 x15, i had 17/38 gears, 22mm carb, pipe, coil, plug

which 22mm carb should he get and does he need a new intake too?
