We just entered the rainy winter season in Hawaii, I will pretty much plan to drive in the rain every day through january now!! I am wondering if my tires(stock) could be updated to a better rain tire? Say also I wanted to ask about clutch spring for the agility 50, what do you guys suggest?(I live up a hill and need power, right now with new rollers(5g) I am doing much better so I dont want to take away from that)

Get E'M slinger.  If you step up the clutch springs it will allow the engine to rev to the power band. Slinger has first hand experience. How did you make out w/ your wet weather running problem? Just to give an idea, I bought Kenda tires. THEY S*CK. From what I have read the Pirellies are better. Who would think a scoot. would need SSSSSSSSOOOOOOO much tuning!!! Aloha Bro. Ps the springs on the clutch will only help.

Well, said Zombie.  I think Slinger might have to get into more of the specifics with which springs.  I know the ones I used are green, other than that not sure what rpm rating they have.  The main clutch spring may help with hills also.  None of these upgrades should have a negative effect from what you have.

My scooter shop guy says that 1000 rpm would be good on the spring but I would love to hear from someone with riding experience!

I just looked at the package mine came in, they are Jasil Top Racing green +15%, which is 1000 rpm I believe.  You probably want to see what Slinger is using though.  He has an Agility, I have a 2stroke ZX50.

..malossi variator with 5.5 gr rollers...probly more like 5.2 by now...

...I'm running a white (1000?) Malossi main spring...awaiting my 1500..... still...

..red Leo Vince fly clutch springs, which are said to be +50 by Leo...

..high flow air filter, 110 jet that is a little rich for warm weather..

..stock jets otherwise..whatever they are... :)

..raised my needle .025" last night..but I had a 25 mph headwind this morning, so the jury is still out on that..update 2moro...

..I have pretty good hill climbing capabilities...even from a take-off..

..have not lost, or gained any top end speed since I installed the Malossi...except when I'm running rich..lil loss then..

peace
