People 50 / Just bought a Kymco people 50 2t advice on derestricting
« on: November 07, 2018, 04:36:50 PM »
First let me start with, I already own a Kymco People 150 and I have my motorcycle license. I liked the 150 so much that I kept searching for a 50 2t and finally found one with only 600 miles on it. I have done enough reading on how to derestrict and I understand that if I do it, to be legal I would need to change from a moped license to a motorcycle license.
I took a look at the variator boss and the previous owner must have had it changed as there is no "shoulder on it"
I took off the exhaust and it still has the washer restriction in there. I am 190 lbs and currently get about 35 mph on GPS on flat ground. If I were to do the following how much top speed might I be able to add?
1. Remove the restriction on the exhaust
2. Purchase and install an unrestricted CDI
3. Rejet the carb
Just trying to decide if it is worth it. I am planning to use the people 50 exclusively on city streets where the traffic moves at around 35-40 mph and if I could give he a little help keeping up I wouldn't mind it.
