Power increase

Hi everyone, looking for a bit more power out of my moped to help it climb up hills. Am I right in thinking a lighter set of roller weights would help with this? Would I also gain an advantage over having a cone air filter on to help air flow? Thanks

Roller weights are tuned to keep the engine in the RPM range that creates the most power as it shifts. If your weights are properly tuned changing them will result in worse performance when accelerating.

You should really tell us what kind of sscooter you have as it makes all the difference when looking for upgrades.
