I dont have a ZX,ihave an Agility50,but you can change roller weights, lighter for more acceleration, heavier for a little more top speed.
Fit a 1000rpm torque spring for better uphill. Fit a race variator for smoother acceleration and usually better top speed. Pluss much,much more,these are just a few of the simplist things to do 1st.
Chaos is my co-pilot.

55 might be a bit much, I am only getting that with a 70cc cyl. kit.
ZX50, 47mm cyl. kit, TZR50 CDI. Michelin Pilot Sport tyres,
Next performance mod; pumping the tyres up.

I agree... I was getting a good and hard gps 55.. The zx engine is alot smaller than others inside.. But you can bet your ass, that 55 is a good one. :D ;). After that, we need to hit some gear swaps to break 60..
Striedo put you on the right track for sure.. If your on a hard budget, S.A has some cheaper prices for the "knock off" parts, of course malossi has the best parts.. ;)
Shaving the cylinder head to set the squish is a real good and cheap mod that can grab you 4mph on top end. Helps it "wake up" in the low to mid range too..

Hey jake... Where is it that you reside? are you in the states?
What link are you wanting?
Here is the one for S.A.. They are in taiwan so it takes a cpl weeks to recieve parts from them but they have cheap prices for the "knock off" version, but of course i dont think anybody beats malossi parts  ;)

Yeah i'm in the states chicago, illinois area. just the links of any online parts store where i can get mods and such for my zx50. i just want it to go like 50 mph so i can ride it on certain roads without getting ran over by cars. i just bought my scooter so i know like nothing about mods and those sorts of things.
