Well yah but the reason I need power is because its very sandy and yah I guess your right they do put out ridiculous torque. It really is about the rider, thats the problem......IM RIDING it!! Haha. What you think I should do? I wouldnt want to build a motor and spen a grand on a bore kit when I can just get like a 117 se with the tak close ratio tranny for a grand shipped.
Ya, you really don't need these huge blinged out race motors. Go with the 117, a decent carb kit, maybe a TB clutch and get your gearing dialed in. Thats what I find helps the most. Run a big rear sprocket and you should be good. A decent set of tires wouldn't hurt either

tb 117?
 
Plan B.....Get a 110 haha. There are soo many hop up parts that make noticeable power gains and are dirt cheap compared to 50s. The sky is the limit when it comes to 110s. But either way, go with what ever is more practical for your situation which is probably the 117SE like you said.

haha yah Ive thought of that too. Basically I dont want to go through parting my bike and then picking up a 110. But I would say if I could just trade my 50 for a 110 modded the same way Id do it, but thats not the case. And I like 50's
