Kymco News / Re: So, when will we hear about 2021 models?
« on: September 09, 2020, 09:10:00 PM »
They still sell (atv & utv mostly) in Canada, but they dropped their distributor last year so I have no idea how anyone is getting any stock here in Canada. One store in Quebec was selling the 2019 Like 150, but other then that nadda

2021 models! I haven't seen any new KYMCO scooters since 2018/19 and even then it was Just a X-Town 300 and a Xciting 400

K.K I live in the farthest North West portion of the GTA just north of Georgetown.
 49cc scooters are considered Limited Speed Motorcycles(not able to go faster then 75KPH-46MPH) as they fall under 51cc.
 In Ontario to drive any scooter-motorcycle with an engine greater then 51cc requires you to have a full Motorcycle licence(M) where as anything with an engine size smaller then 51cc it`s just an ML(motorcycle Limited speed). But yo get your full M it requires you to drive on a 400 series Highway at speeds of excess of 100KPH-60MPH which no 4T 51-110cc scooter will attain  ;)

Here in Ontario all scooters are considered motorcycles, they just get categorized as either Limited Speed(50cc and Under), Small displacement (51-250cc) to just a motorcycle(anything over 251cc)

I've bin dealing with them for years never had any issues with them or their service. It's my go to place for my scooter parts. I normally get my parts a week after I order them. Dang Canada Post ;)

zx50 / Re: Loss of power, compression loss or carb?
« on: June 07, 2020, 09:42:49 PM »
if it's 10 years old it may be time to rebuild the top end.  to keep it going strong 2T's need a top end build every few years/10Miles. so all you need is a new 50cc kit or upgrade to a 70cc but then that would necessitate a larger carb.

no overheating will only occur if you remove the shrouds from around the engine always keep those on.
As to speed it's hard to say. Start with a base line GPS reading as the scooter sits now. then start with the removal of the Boss Restriction but keep the stock rollers in and retest on the same roads.
 Then move to the exhaust replacement make sure you use a larger main jet in the carb when you add the new exhaust. Stock is like an 80-85 move up to an 90-95 main jet just to make sure you're not running the engine too lean with a freer flowing exhaust.
Then lastly make sure you have a few different weights or a variator tuning kit to dial in the best weights for you personally

You cant compare the Aprilia SR50 to the ZX50. The Aprilia straight from the box will hit 50MPH with a little fine tuning it will do 60+ I've seen it. The ZX is harder to get the same type of performance.
 The SR was made to be a high performance scooter with twin spark plugs, Liquid cooled with an engine managment computer and most had Direct Fuel Injection (DiTech model), Plus the final drive gearing is different. The ZX is old school Air cooled and carbureted with a taller final drive ratio for better cruising.
  My 2005 ZX50 Super Fever 2 SA10 was upgraded to a 70cc with a mild pipe and Larger 19mm carb and will hit a true 90KPH(56MPH) after I spent about a week playing around with different roller combinations. For more speed I would need to find a final drive gear set which are hard to come by for the ZX as it's not a popular as it once was. Before that it would only hit a true 60-65KPH/35-40MPH speedo read 70+KPH, speed verified by GPS and my wife following in our Van. But the engine was in need of a rebuild as Two-strokes will need every 7500-10,000Km and at over 10yrs old that could account for a lose of some power/speed.
 And it's hard to tell if people who saw 50+MPH were going by an optimistic speedometer{which in my experience with KYMCO's 50cc they are} or GPS?

really adding a pipe will only gain you maybe 1-2MPH unless you plan on upping the CC's to 70 with a BBk, then you would also need a new carb as jets for the stock carb are hard to find to properly keep the larger motor running with out it failing.
As to the rollers grab a good roller tuning kit and see what weight/s works best for you as everyone is different. Stock roller weight is 8.5g to start

Your ZX is nicer looking then mine. Nie pick Up.
Firstly yours looks to be a ZX50 Super Fever 2 there is a small distinctions and variances between the 2 engines.
To start off you should look into a Variator & Clutch upgrade(read the tranny/CVT) plus a new belt. Simple, quick and relatively inexpensive. Grab a variator tuning kit to help figur what weights work best for you. Stock weights in a ZX50 are 8.5grams.
 After that move on to a performance exhaust with a small upjet to the carb.
If you can find a set of final drive gears closer to 11:1 that normally helps with top end but they are really hard to find for the ZX
Lastly if more power is needed or wanted move up to a BigBoreKit and stroker kits. 70cc is tops for stock crank anything larger will require a new stronger crank and modifications to the  crank case itself plus a new larger carb. and lots of time to tune it just right.
To help with parts most if not all CVT parts from a Honda Dio will fit the ZX but the belt is shorter on the Dio so be careful there. And most Exhaust systems also interchangeable as well.

Good luck to ya Mate enjoy the Lil'Beasty

good pick up mate. I just upgraded my ZX engine to a 70cc and it hits 80KPH readily at a constant cruse not done playing with the rollers to get it perfect. Be careful if tuning the cvt as these lil'scoots like heavier rollers. Anywhere from 8.25-9.0g. Stock is 8.5g

zx50 / Re: gy6 variator fit a zx50 ?
« on: September 11, 2019, 11:40:49 AM »
don't believe it will fit or work properly as the qmb139 is a 4T. Look for CVT parts(other then the belt) that fit a Honda Dio they will fit the ZX

zx50 / Re: zx oil change
« on: July 22, 2019, 11:00:13 PM »
More then likely it's a 2 stroke. under the seat buy the fuel cap there should be a second cap that says "oil" just top it up with some good synthetic 2stroke oil and you're good to go to about 900-1000Km.  On the dash there is a light that has "oil" or oil can picture by it when that light comes on that means you have about 100ml left of oil and need to add more.
