People 50 / Aftermarket exhaust question...what does this thing do?
« on: May 13, 2020, 05:41:42 PM »
I just installed a LeoVince TT exhaust on my People 50 2T and I'm trying to figure out what to do with this part that was previously attached to the stock exhaust (See attachment).  There doesn't seem to be anywhere to attach it to the new exhaust. 

I feel like such a noob because I can't figure it out.  When I googled the part number it came up as a reed valve assembly, but its not connected to the engine at all.  I couldn't find any info on it in the service manual. The tube runs to the front of the scooter.  The scooter seems to run fine without it hooked up to the exhaust, so I'm wondering how important it is. Anyone know what the function is and if it is needed or not?  Is it just emissions equipment? Thanks!

People 50 / Kill switch faulty...possible to bypass?
« on: May 07, 2020, 12:26:14 AM »
I have a 2011 People 50 2T and I was having a no-spark issue and discovered that it appears to be caused by a faulty kill switch.  If I put the switch in the run position I have no spark, but if I rock it back and forth or leave it in sort of a middle position, the scooter starts right up.

Does anyone know if its possible to repair or bypass the kill switch?  I haven't had much luck finding any replacement ones online, so I would like to be able to at least ride the scooter in the meantime until I do.  And if anyone knows where to find one, I'd appreciate it.  Thanks!

People 50 / Upgrade Options for 2011 People 50 4T
« on: June 28, 2018, 06:02:12 PM »
I recently acquired a 2011 People 50 4T (US version) from a friend who moved out of state and was wondering what upgrades were out there.  I'm not expecting much performance from a little 50cc, but it's in my nature to tinker with all of my vehicles, so I can't just leave it stock  ;D .

Where would you guys recommend starting down the path of upgrading?

I was thinking about starting with an unrestricted CDI, but I wasn't sure which one to get for a 4T.  The only one that I can seem to find that says its for a 4T and DC is this one:
www.scooterdynasty.com/cdinarakuracingfor50cc-125cc4-strokekymcoscooters.aspx
It seems like its a lot more expensive than most other unrestricted CDIs out there, do you guys know if there are better and/or cheaper options out there that I could use?

I assume that an unrestricted variator boss and different weights/springs would be a good upgrade as well.  What parts would you recommend using on this particular scooter?

Any recommendations for exhausts or air filters?  I know changing these around would probably require a re-jet and a tune, but I figured those would be good mods to do before I go all out and upgrade to 80cc or something.
