It seems to be lacking low end power, I thought it may be because Ive been on TrafficJamz 125cc the passed few days but thats not it. It used to spin out in dirt and wheelie off of the line but now it doesnt almost feels like a stock spree??? Any ideas?

Ok, The acceleration is crappy but the top end is the same. Your probably right but I smell more performance parts!

I'd change the belt before you go and grab a new clutch

Positives
they look great
you get a bigger tire
you get almost double the size of drum brake up front
you get newer suspension (probably better too)

Negatives
The front fender won't fit anymore
You have to swap the front speedo cable and front brake cable. Even the sr50 cables barely reach down to the hub.


The positives really outweight all the negatives :imo:

You know it. I just wanted the bigger drum brakes, the spree ones are tiny

But once you get em on there they look pretty sweet too. I got mine for a whoopin $10 :rock:
Some guy on ebay was selling a brand new set for $130, so find 'em cheap or try to find a parts bike
