Clutch turn to wheel turn ratio

[Kieren]

My 6 month old Kymco Super 8 50cc doesn't go over 30mph (de-restricted EVERYTHING).

It takes 19 and a bit turns of the clutch for one full revolution of the wheel.
Is this right?
Any ideas on how to reduce this number?

I'm not sure, seems excessive!  I can check what the ratio is on my zx50 and let you know.  I'm a little curious now.  I believe the way you change that ratio is via the final reduction gears.

I just checked mine on my zx50 and it is about 10.5:1.

Yeah mine does seem pretty high  

I've got an old Baotian engine (think its pretty much the same) will check the gears on my Kymco against the old Baotian ones to see if they'll fit.

Only ones i can see to buy are a 10% Gear up kit but are only recommend for 125cc's

EDIT:
Just an after thought, what size wheels does your bike have?
Mine has 14" which may affect gear ratios etc

Mine has a 120/70-12 rear tire, it is also a 2-stroke.  I wouldn't rely solely upon my gear ratio as a comparison.  You need to get someone with the same bike to truly compare too before you make any changes to your own.
