I drilled out about half of the exhaust restrictor.
I now get much better acceleration, and my top speed wasn't really affected that much.
That's exactly what I wanted.

Better acceleration for an Elite S 50

[quote="Dac"]here is another place that tells how to fully unrestricted it.
heres the thing. You have one of the best mopeds you can get. 94-01 honda elite 50's has a Dio motor. the Dio motor is highly mod able and can hit speeds of 75mph with bore/carb/pipe/gears. if you spend like 1000$ on it you can hit speeds of 120+mph but thats just stupid on something like this.
Trust me, all-engine (non-nitrous) DIO motors cannot hit 120 mph on a regular moped frame. It's never been done anywhere, and anyone who claims it might get a call out from a Burt Munro fan.
De-restricting the stock pipe and clutch are the best (and cheapest) things to do. If you resell your bike, I don't think any potential buyer would mind that you've de-restricted it.
