So far it's looking a little grim for performance parts.
The scooter has been on the streets since July/August of 2012, but most aftermarket parts seem to be for the 2-stroke engines of the 2009 and earlier models.
After my service manual comes in this week, I'm going to start making calls to see what is available for the 2013 models so I can budget it out and start getting things done.
My plan of attack is:
Variator, roller weights, racing clutch, and a kevlar belt.
Then a performance exhaust system.
Then (if available) a means to flash the eeprom of the ECM with some performance settings (and to raise the rev-limit for a higher top speed).
Then taller tires.
Lighter wheels (if I can afford them).
Then, in three years, upgrade to a full-sized motorcycle (CBR500R, or a Ninja 650).

Do they make power commanders for those little bikes? Since u mentioned an EEPROM it made me think of it. K&N filter, exhaust and a power commander are like necessary on any crotch rocket IMO. Easy grand right thereabouts.

Went out to my sister's bachelorette party last night. I was the only dude there. It was fun as hell. Other guys were invited but didn't do it because they were afraid or something. They were saying I grew a vagina n all that shit... hahaha, whatever. Got some poon so I'll take having dudes call me gay if it =vag. All the girls were acting slutty as fuck. It was awesome.

Hahaha. Yeah, it was cool. I will admit I had to go to a very, very gay bar. It was like fucking trannies singing music like it was rocky horror picture show or something. I just told myself as long as they didn't touch me I was fine. I think they could tell who was straight though. I was wearing a sports hat, sports logo shirt, and a chick was sitting on my lap so it should be enough signal to not fuck with me.
Sorta out of my element there, but whatever it was pretty fun. Just didn't make eye contact with anyone pretty much haha.

Picked up a K&N airfilter last night.
Went from holding 22mph up a long & steep hill to now holding 24mph up the same hill.
My goal is to hold 30mph up this particular hill by the time I'm done with my upgrades.
Depending on what's available for it, I may not reach my goals, especially if I limit my budget.
If the cost outweighs the gains, I'll put the money aside towards my main goal of buying a regular motorcycle in 2 or 3 years.
Will start with a variator & rollers, and a kevlar drive belt, and take it from there.
I'm not sure anyone wants my wife on a scooter.
Hell, I'm not sure I want her driving a car.
Who said that!?

If you want a cheap bike to dick around on get a ninja 250. They hold their value really well. I know a lot of times people will ride them a season or two, and maybe only lose $500 if even when they sell them.

The problem with the 250 ninja is its so god damn slow. After a 5 minute ride you're like ok I'm ready to go faster. I did my license test on a friends 250 and that's about all I'd want to ride it for. Good commuter if you don't got too far to drive though. I guess I was really bugged that I couldn't get the front wheel off the ground without majorly popping the clutch. The first thing I try to do on any bike is bring the front wheel up, even my brothers Harley lol

Yeah, the scooter was like, after the first 5 seconds I thought to myself, "Man! Why did I ever get away from motorcycles in the first place!?".
Five minutes later I'm thinking, "Man, I should have just held out and got a real motorcycle."
But you know how wives can be.
When I was letting her know about upgrades for the scooter, I layed the blame on her for opening up Pandora's two-wheeled box and let her know that in 2 to 3 years I'd be upgrading.
Was originally thinking about a Ninja 300, but my last ride was a Ninja 600r, and I just can't see going smaller than that.
The CBR500R is the smallest I'd go if I'm spending more than $5k on a bike.
She was not happy about that, and said a 250 was the biggest I needed (she's never swung her leg over the seat of a motorcycle in her life).
But I held my ground and said it's my ass on the line when I'm out on 2 wheels, and I will have the final say on what size motorcycle I need and, if I'm going to spend 4k on a 300, I'd rather save up the extra and get a 500cc.
Now I'm thinking of saving the extra 2k beyond that and getting a Ninja 650.
But, I might just get a CBR500R and add a few go-fast goodies to it instead.
Will never be as fast as a CBR600RR or ZX6R (or even a Ninja 650), but it'll be faster than the average sportscar.
I'm not so much about running around like lightning, but I don't want to be able to be chased down by a Yugo.

There are those sport/cruiser things they sell now. I road one when I was selling my zx10r. It was ok for what it was, but for me it was like it couldn't make up its mind if it was a cruiser, or a sport bike. It was too slow for my taste, but I get why some might like it. Really cushy ride too.

nice ass thread you all got going here. 4x4x7 tent rocking a 600. 2 pineapple chunk, 2 laughing budda, 3 NL13 all veggin. and 4 NL13 rooted clones growing in tent as well. pics and such are in the link below.
as far as the motorcycle posts go. Im a former trackday ONLY rider/racer for since 2006. power commanders are yesterdays news. get the bazzaz zfi and zafm modules. and skip the k&n air filters. they are no better than oem, except you can clean them. get a BMC race filter. guaranteed hp/tq when matted with a fuel tuner. i used to build, maintain, and race all my bikes. ran bikes from a 1997 cbr F3 600, 2001 gsxr 600, 2004 cbr 1000rr, 2007 gsxr 600.
if you ever happen on youtube, look up demonRR. some vids suck, some are cool. ran at VIR, Mid ohio, Grattan, Blackhawk farms, and road atlanta. i gave up riding the streets after a few close calls from asshole cages. then i gave up riding all together after a near miss of a guard rail riding at Grattan raceway trying for a record lap time going backwords (CCW). that was it. i already had a horriffic highside at that same track in 2008 and was really hurt. 4 fractured ribs, cuncusion, mild whiplash, contusions on both knees, both shoulders, both elbows, during a major highside that sent me flying about 10+' in the air and medivac'd to the er. i was a walking zombie on the track for a min untill a corner worker helped me. i have zero recolection of said accident. the bike was a total loss. only the motor was still usable.
