Elite wheelie bars

Has anyone ever built any wheelie bars for an elite or any other moped, this came up last night when i pulled back too far and the luggage rack took the impact to the ground, i'm thinking about using a couple rollerblade wheels and just weld an add on to the luggage rack so that i can ride wheelies ...

1/2" auto belt

Why won't this spree mod work on an elite, is it because the the variator will squeeze the belt off of the pulley since it is thicker or what ?

Clutch Springs

I was just wondering if i can counteract the slower acceleration of higher gears by putting stronger clutch springs in on my elite, what size/color of springs should i put on (i now have stock springs)

Compression test

when doing a compression test, is it necessary to have the throttle completely open to get an accurate reading?

wouldn't that be giving you worse gas mileage though since some of your mixture is going out in the exhaust, which would require more gas to be taken into the intake to get enough mixture to cause enough
compression, but a small portion of it not burned?

no, i haven't, so if you do run a two stroke without a pipe part of the mixture runs out in the exhaust making the mixture that is ignited lean?

so it just keeps the new fuel/air mixture from rushing out or being pushed out of the cylinder by the piston through the exhaust port since the exhaust port is higher than the intake?

So then with a four stroke since the exhaust valve is closed when the mixture is being compressed it should be ok ...
