center spring is on the drive pulley, and determens at what rpm to start shifting.

determens at what rpm to start shifting? it is a auto trans right. so what kind of springs should i go with.

well, the variator changes the ratio of the engine to wheel. like a transmission. as the rpms grow the ratio increases, so its kinda like "shifting" but is continuiously variable.

you would want a temp guage or a cht guage which is what i use on bore kits and strokers so you shut down before you seize.

right. not a bad idea. the problem is, when it is bored the wall is thinner. so it heats faster and hotter. like a torch to a soda can.

nitrous sounds cool, but wouldn't it blow up the head? I don't think a stock 50cc top-end is made to handle that sort of power.. :?:
