Default Blaster Tuning

I was just wondering if there is any fine tuning i can do to my Blaster. I got the toomey pipes and what not, but is there any engine work i can do like turn a screw or something to advance timing. Can i change my gear ratios... just something i can do so i can play with my "TOY" so to speak lol.. but i don't want to screw it up....is there anything i can do to it myself?

well u could change ur sprockets...

adding teeth in the front gives u more top end and less low end... and losing teeth in the front givesu more low end... i believe the rear is the exact opposite but i am not sure...

its kinda like gears on a mountian bike,
bigger in back =slow, but good torque
small in back = fast, but no torque

as far as small modds, you could put some new reeds and a spacer- you could also get a degree key for it.

All a degree key does is raise the ignition timing. it gives an impressive little bit of low end horse power. approx 2.5 hp for a little thing that cost 25$

nope, wont affect top speed at all. the only thing it will change is how fast you get there
