9:1 gears, high speed pulley kit
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

Call up VT cycles and order 9:1 gears and a high sped pulley kit.

anyone with a press can press them for you.

9:1 gears and a highspeed pulley kit from VTcycles cost $105. (after shipping)
Put on a completely stock elite Sr you can go 47-50mph.

Its a good set up because you keep your stock cylinder, meaning no break in. And you can hold it WOT for long times without worrying about overheating.
Its also good because it wont make your bike any louder. In the case of my friends Sr, he had to keep it quiet because of the place he lives. This was the perfect set up.

A PS? P is the slow one, S is the fast one, P has a less aggressive drive ramp and a straight pipe (doesnt get bigger as it gets to the muffler) exhaust.

under the seat it says SA50PS, is there any other way to know what model it is, possibly by the vin number.

the elite S has the washer in the top of the tail pipe, but they have a way better pipe then an Sr.
Also, im not sure where kenny gets his info, but i can tell you, Comparing my elite S to my friends Sr. The S has a better pipe, but the S also has the plate on the variator.
Personally as the for the ramp, i believe there the same, but im not 100% sure.
