I think you have the answer in front of you. Much cooler air will make a difference because it is denser air. You have denser air going into the engine and you are hearing with denser air around your ears.

This is true too.

I had a custom muffler on my other scooter. (lawn mower muffler)... Anyway, long story short, it sounded awesome during the morning commute to work and sounded like a lawn mower muffler on the way home from work in the heat of the afternoon.

Go figure.

Re: Red Lining

Thanks guys. My commute to school take a total of 25 minutes, and only ten minutes is at 65, the rest at 55-60. Is that an acceptable amount per day for the bike?

Thanks for the great info jonathan, where do I order a sproket like that?
