Here's something you might choose to do. The ZS172FMM3-A engine in the bike is not counter balanced. It's buzzy at 45 50 mph Not ridiculous but some harmonicas come to play at certain RPMs. Researching "YouTube" I came across Harley owners filling there handle bars with lead bird shot to reduce handlebar buzz and fatigue.. I installed some bark busters and decided to give the idea a try. A mixture of #5 & #7 bird shot probably close to 1 lb to fill the handle leaving maybe an inch of room so it's not completely full. Wow! What a difference it makes. Probably reduced vibration by 70%. I don't like the Xtra weight but I'm very happy with the results...
I haven’t thought too much about the carb, but I am kicking around the idea of adding an oil cooler
