..cvts are about having the best fuel mix, combustion..delivering the raw horsepower to the variator...

..then translating that output to the rear tire, while keeping the engine running a pretty much constant rpm, until you venture toward top speeds...

Grrr..... gonna be a fight. I knew it. Kymco doesnt make that pulley that you have anymore. Every web site shows its being replaced by the one I received. Do you guys know anyone who has a set like Slingers?

Zombie said the one for the ZX will work too. Or... Has that part been replaced with the restricted one too?

Hummmm....

Take a look at this

I'd give stadium a call and see if that assembly is restricted

OK guys, update time. Still battling to get the correct pulley. In the mean time, I installed new oem 8.5 rollers, belt, original regreased pulley, 1500 spring. Holy Crap! I am soo friggin happy. Power all over the place, except for a tiny delay at the very beginning. But all my goals are achieved now.  Can maintain 55mph at only 8500rpm! I can easily cruise at 52 sitting up at 8,100rpm.....where I used to be at 9,000+rpm. I just trailed a truck in the passing lane for the first time with the speedo pinned....... must have been around 60-65mph. I am just gonna fight for a refund on those pulleys now. Next up, getting those avon vipers installed ;D

Stiffer clutch springs will help that

Thats what I hear.... may have to give them a shot. Then the mod bug will be in full effect! Lol. I forgot to mention I also installed a Naruku oiled air OEM replacement air filter. I cant imagine what a pipe and rejetting would do..... :-)

Yeah, those Super 9s are fast

I realized this the other day... When I bought my people I could have got an S9 for about 4 or $500 hundred more. Boy am I sorry. I've spent more than that just making my People keep up with a S9. I just didn't know then. To be honest I didn't know sh** about scoots period. I just knew I wanted a 2 stroke. In the end though, 2 grand plus tax and all the other BS fees was too much as it was. I bought one new for the warranty. That proved to be useless anyway. I shoulda just found a used S9. Like I said, I just didn't know. Live and learn  :-[

Don't get me wrong, I love my Peop. Kymcos are great scooters. Coulda been much worse. I could have bought a VIP  :D. I don't know what I'd have done if I didn't have this forum. Still on my way home from school getting passed by big trucks cause my POS VIP won't go over 35  :D

You've definitely caught the tuning bug  ;D

Stick around the forum. We like to joke and have fun too. Despite how some forum members feel about it  :D ;)

MOD:
Just realized you're already a full member. Disregard my last statement there  :D

Speaking of VIP scoots is a sore spot with me. Finally got my Super 8 to go up to 40mph and was happy with it. On my way down to the beach at near WOT when two, what looked to be 12 year olds, blew past me on a bright yellow and blue VIP with a stack of 3 crab traps tied to the rack. Didn't even feel like going on down to the beach after that. I bought my People 250 about two weeks later.  >:(
