Default 09 SR 50 R Factory

I just bought a 2009 SR50R Factory. I have removed the restriction washer that was in the variator, & regapped the plug from .024 to .035. which lessoned a hesitation I had at lower rpms. In the tucked position, I have been able to go 52 MPH on level ground, & 58 MPH down a long step hill. I like my scooter very much..., I love it. I have 1210 miles to date. I have had trouble with the digital display, i.e., I have never been able to reset the tripometer to zero. I love the way that it stops, & the way that it handles. When I have the money, I will add a side stand, rear trunk, & a Leo Vince exhaust. I am also considering a 70cc kit. I want enough power to be able to accelerate up hills. I paid $3444.00 for the scooter, with a heavy chain & a heavy lock, (because my last 07 Kymco Super 9 scooter got stolen).
