I thought you had been browsing through the old posts.............guess you missed the ones about the muffler and sound. :roll:

The answer is NO, likely nothing you do will make it sound "better". Making it a lot louder is illegal and obnoxious (removing the muffler completely). It will never sound like a "big" bike.

The sound does change a bit after a few thousand miles; forgot what year/mileage yours is.

Except for the 16T front sprocket, most folks find that ANY tinkering with this little bike is an exercise in futility......and some don't even like that change either.

The best advice I can give you is: Ride it until the itch for a bigger, faster, louder bike becomes overwhelming and then trade it in. At that point, any radical changes you have made will cause it to be worth less; maybe MUCH less.

Others may disagree! :cool:
