Are CAG upgrades worth it?

[HJRS]

I came across this on ebay and was wondering if many people had installed these and whether or not they made much difference? I read on a forum somewhere that cag upgrades are pretty much pointless as they dont really do anything. I'm pretty new to all this, just trying to pick up things here and there...

what type of bike do you have cause cags are usualy found in pocketbikes(roadbikes)

its just a cheapo mini quadard. I was told these things are cags but lemme know if you think thats not the case. It started off as me just wanting a toy to put around the backyard on, but now it's turned into a bit of project

You could make an aircooled cag engine hit something like 7hp with the correct upgrades but first change the parts known to fail, like fuel filter, fuel lines & you'll want a stronger clutch, check www.ozminimoto.com.au.

Only problem is I don't know if you could upgrade to a performance exhaust on a quad

Unfortunately that website is temporarily down, just ask RD_Racing he builds race engines for pocket-bikes and is a member of both forums

Thanks for the replies.
Pockethead - is that because you dont think the exhaust would fit in the frame?
