I think the point you are missing Axy is (for me) I ride 50cc scoots because ANYONE can buy a bigger/faster scoot. The FUN is in beating these guys at their game. Scooters are TOYS! NOT vehicles. I sure dont want a 5'000 dollar scooter. That's like a 5"000 dollar Barbie.
I ride ONLY 50cc, and will never stop. Its not about being cheap. It's about how much fun it is going 60mph on a toy.
In my shop I have an '82 Sturgis edition Harley Wide Glide that has not been ridden in three years. Next to that is my '90 Jeep Cherokee. I ride in that about 4-5 times a year. I just sold the '79 Pathfinder se, as it has sat for the same three years,  and honestly I HATE being in a car. I feel like death is riding with me. I don't like the Harley any better. It's too easy to keep twisting the throttle.
I choose to move to a Quite lil Swamp, and live a Quite lil life. 50cc is all I need. To top it off I spend in ONE YEAR on vehicles what others spend in 2 months for fuel/insurance/tires.
I should state I am 53 this month, and have had over 100 cars, and more than 130 scoots/motorcycles. I have NEVER held a Drivers lisc. in ANY state. Just my choice. Just as I have chosen to be a mechanic. I have 2 bachelors degrees, and have never liked the work force. So I fix toys, and will never give in to having "permission" to ride on the roads I paid for.
50cc'ers of the world unite! Just stay away from me...

F*CK YEAH!!!!!!!! ;D ;) :D ;D

Just putting this out there. I'm not afraid to admit it. A lot of us have suspended/revoked licenses for reasons we care not to mention. It's not something we choose but the life we have to live. For most of us transportation is our lives. We ride 50cc scooters because it's the only legal transportation. I don't live in the city. Buses don't come to where I live. What's my option? I have known people that drive without licenses. I say good luck to them. I know for a fact if I drive a motor vehicle on a public road and get caught I will go to prison. For me it's just not worth it. I've told myself I'd never ride a scooter. But you know what, I don't care what other people think anymore. It's my life and my freedom. That's what my 50cc scooter means to me is freedom. If anybody fat European has a problem with the way I live he can go F##k himself!

your trouble is in the jug height. Your compression is too low because of the giant squish. For it all to work right the piston at BDC MUST be equal to the bottom of the lowest port. That will be the correct jug height. Then depending on your head the Cly may need to be milled to get the proper deck height. You do want between .4-1.0mm The smaller the squish the higher the octane rating you n I run fine on 90oct, and a .8mm squish on two different kits. Get your squish right, and your rpm's and power will climb. Get the jug height, and post what the piston/deck height is.

F*CK YEAH!!!!!!!!   

I really don't think its a money thing. It's a life style...I know you get that Axy. You chose the same path... Just the store bought one. We are "home brewed". Slingers got his Lisc. and still scoots 50's. Out of 8-10 known scoots in my county 7-8 of them are 50cc's. I really have no love for bigger scoots. May as well get a REAL bike.
