It is only going to be used for road riding as a commuter bike. Right now, I'm looking at the very least getting a better carb and an o-ring chain. How much of this list applies to the Motomax, if any? Are there any other suggested upgrades or modifications primarily for safety and longevity? Performance is secondary to longevity for me.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Also if anyone could point me in the right direction for a luggage rack. I think I read Brozz parts will fit it but the tubing is weak.

I had a Brozz a few years ago, and it was actually not jetted to bad, it had a 105 main , but I can't remember the pilot size. I assume the MotoMax comes with 46/17 sprockets, which is actually what I run on my Hawk, in fact I am running the very sprocket that was on my Brozz. 17/46 is pretty good on a Hawk, because of the tire size, but it was a little low for my Brozz, because it had smaller tires, and I figure your MotoMax does too, so if that's the case, then you may want to install a 42 tooth rear sprocket. As you mentioned the chain should be replaced, and I personally would probably replace the rear sprocket studs. I don't know if they are as bad as the ones on the Hawk, but I saw a video of Nick Corona having them break in his Brozz, which he mistreated. Check the spokes, and keep the valves adjusted, oil changed, and other simple routine maintenance, and it's probably a good bike. I don't know why the MotoMax wasn't more popular than it was.
