Hi & Welcome Cool

i've got a scorpion and am pleased with how the GTs goes with it but build quality is a bit poor (repacked once and welded twice in a year Embarassed ) if i was buying again i'd go for a PM

Hello Mate.

Whichever exhaust you choose when it comes to the engine use the malossi 210 kit and a 140/70/12 rear tyre for a substancial increase in power and top speed.
You will also need to upgrade the carb to GT200 spec (4 items) or just get a 200 carb.
You'll be flyin'

Hello Craig, Welcome to the site.

The obvious (but expensive) upgrade for a GT125 is a Malossi 210cc cylinder kit. All the other mods add a bit here and a bit there, but nothing near as significant.

Craig,

It's not expensive at all when you consider price vs gain!
You could spend the same money on a few other bits and only gain a small percentage of what the 210 kit gives you.

Russ.
