did this bike come from the factory restricted? can anyone tell me before i risk snaping the exaust bolts off to check... also should it have the plate restricter behind the front clutch? the bike already goes 33-35mph with no air box(didnt come with the scoot) so id be stoked if it was restricted thanks for your time

bad news dude, no such thing.

that bikes top speed is only 35mph. There is no restickers or anything.

I would highly recomend getting a UNI air filter for it though. I had a 92 elite SR, i got a UNI filter from a local performance shop and it helped out quiet a bit. And it filtered out dirt and other harmful things to the motor.

Put a filter on it and do a plug chop before you wear it out/melt it!

put a new plug in, run for a few miles wide open. kill the motor at top speed, let the motor cool, remove plug and look at the color.
White-lean (very bad)
co-co brown- perfect.
dark, black, wet= rich (kinda bad)

with no filter you will run lean, running lean your motor will over heat and seize up.

Get a filter on it!
Not only are you leaning out the motor but your getting a bunch of crap where it doesn't need to be
