There are a number of popular modifications, but the most common ones to start with are fitting an aftermarket racing exhaust, a larger carburettor and racing sprockets.

With all this extra power, you will also want to look at the tyres and aerodynamics. Slick racing tyres will help squeeze a bit more off a lap time, but they are not much use in the wet. Addressing aerodynamic issues normally involves fitting a full racing fairing to help the bike slice through the air smoothly by presenting curved surfaces that deflect the air. Without a fairing fitted there is a much greater drag effect caused by the flat square surfaces of the pocketbike and rider.

At some point in your modification programme, you will need to uprate your brakes. Fit vented brake discs front and rear for extra stopping power and endurance; the vents, or holes, in the disc help to keep the disc cool by dissipating the heat that builds up under heavy braking. Without the vents to keep the surface cool, the brakes could become extremely hot and start to fade or even fail.
