Since it is a two cycle engine you can probably double the horsepower with very little expenditure of money. Altered port timing, mild compression boost (don't get carried away here or the primary compression--on top of the piston--will overpower the secondary compression--in the crankcase--and fuel/airmixture won't flow through the transfers as well) and an expansion chamber should make a world of difference.

Here's a bike built by a guy on another forum that I frequent. Since his name is "Hough", he calls his bike "Houghmade"

More info on the bike ~HERE~

I'm reconsidering this with my 11yo huffy. My only concern is any form of registration/ insurance it would need
