Sounds to me like you do not have enough carb. What I mean is throat size, to let the engine get enough air. We run yamaha blasters with all the boring and stroking, and big exhaust. We have to run a 35MM carb at the very minimum. Hope this helps.

CC's don't mean speed. Could your piston be wore out?
Even with a stock carb you should be able to do more than 50.
Something is wrong.
