Stickyparts S-Line Scooter Drive Belts

Standard replacement drive belts can be found at most scooter shops however the quality is often compromised once the price gets low. Stickyparts S-Line belts are sourced direct from the manufacturer in order to offer you an OE level of quality found in most original drive belts but without the often hefty price tag. The fibre composite gives great wear making for a strong reliable belt that lasts. Suitable for many scooters like Gilera Runner 125, Yamaha Aerox, Piaggio Zip, Peugeot Speedfight etc just to name a few. The twist with each of the Stickyparts belts are that the dimensions have been changed marginally to offer improvements in performance, these subtle changes have been made in either overall length, width or pitch dependent on the engine type the belt refers to.

Athena performance parts for 2T Piaggio LC engines

Athena produce aftermarket parts for a wide range of scooters and are a good option if you want good power increases and reliability. Here we've put together a few suggestions for getting the most out of a two-stroke Piaggio liquid cooled engine:

Piaggio liquid cooled engines (e.g. Gilera Runner)

Athena HP 70cc cylinder kit
The Athena HP 70cc aluminium cylinder kit provides very useable all round performance throughout the rev range making it perfect for the street. This is an extremely durable kit and the porting and quality is excellent. This particular kit features a single piston ring, carbon fibre reed petals and a bunch of gaskets for squish etc. Fits all Piaggio liquid cooled engines.

We recommend you use a bigger carburettor of 17.5mm or above, however this kit will work fine with the original carb with a jet increase of at least 10-15% along with a performance exhaust.

Product code: AD/071500

Athena HPR Racing 70cc cylinder kit
The HPR Racing 70cc cylinder kit from Athena, like the HP cylinder kit is again a quality product with some great porting and it's also very durable. The way this kit differs from the HP kit is that it has a revised port layout and features a flat top piston for added power. This kit is also higher revving and therefore requires a suitable exhaust like the Yasuni C16 or Doppler RR7. This kit will work in conjunction with the standard carb with a jetting increase of at least 10-15%, but for best performance we recommend using the HPR kit with a 17.5mm carb or above. Also included in the kit are carbon fibre reed petals and a collection of gaskets.

Product code: AD/082500

Athena Platinum drive belt
The Athena Platinum series of drive belts are made in Japan so you can expect the same quality and performance as the Polini drive belts. Made from reinforced Kevlar Athena Platinum drive belts are extremely hard wearing. Please note that kevlar drive belts take around 100 miles to wear in.

Product code: AD/S41PLAT015

Athena unlimited rev CDI unit
Increase your revs! Designed for race use, this device once fitted will remove all the barriers of the standard CDI and give you the benefits of a free revving unlimited unit. This will give you full control of your scooter's power - unrestricted.

Product code: AD/CDI06

50cc road tuning suggestions for Piaggio LC engines

Looking for performance parts can be confusing, especially when there are so many products to choose from. If your scooter has a Piaggio liquid cooled engine then the following suggestions will assist you in getting the best performance on the road as well as keeping your scooter reliable for everyday use:

PIAGGIO 50cc LIQUID COOLED ENGINES

For two-stroke Piaggio 50cc liquid cooled engines which are present in most Gilera/Piaggio scooters like the Gilera Runner, Piaggio NRG, Zip SP, Aprilia SR 50 R Carb etc. we recommend the following:

Cylinder kits: Picking the right 70cc kit all depends on how you want your scooter to perform. The Doppler S7R 70cc cylinder is the most powerful kit available for anyone on a budget at just £119.95 and it's quite a revvy kit meaning it’s great for anyone wanting flat out speed, but bear in mind all the power is at the top of the rev range. Alternatively the Athena HP70 is a pretty powerful aluminium cylinder kit but has very punchy power right from the bottom so it's perfect for them standing starts from the lights.

Exhaust Systems: Don’t hold back when buying an exhaust as on a two-stroke scooter it plays a crucial role in releasing potential power from your engine. The Leo Vince TT is the best all round performer for anyone on a budget and works great on 50cc scoots and relatively well on 70cc cylinder kits too. If you're able to stretch your budget to between the £120/£140 mark then go for either the Doppler S3R or the Polini Team 2 as these are revvier pipes that will help you squeeze a few extra bhp out of your scooter. If you want the most power available out of the above mentioned cylinder kits then the Yasuni C16 will give you just that but at a slightly higher price.

Variator Kits: These are often overlooked but they're one of the most important components for any scooter tuner. There are lots to choose from but we recommend using either the Polini 6 roller or the Polini 9 roller variator. Also note that the roller weights will need to be changed to match your particular set-up, rider weight etc.

The above components will make the biggest improvement in speed on your Piaggio/Gilera scooter. The following parts will further improve performance for anyone who wants to stretch their budget:

Carburettors: Piaggio and Gilera scooters made from 2005 onwards already have a 17.5mm carburettor as standard. So we recommend either the YSN 21mm or the Polini 21mm. To get the best set-up use an open type foam filter and alter the jetting to suit.

Gear kits: Providing you have a 70cc kit installed you can fit a gear up kit. Available in a number of percentages they offer an increase in top speed. Top Racing three piece kits come pre-pressed so they can be installed easier. Polini gear kits are top of the line but this comes at a higher price and need to be pressed before fitting.
