Tomos won't max out

So here is my situation:

I have a very low top speed. Maybe 25 mph

I can't really feel if it's 4 stroking (atleast not how my maxi feels, which is very obvious)

I'm working on the jetting now.

When I look at the wiki, everyone has a way higher jet then what I have now.

My plug is dark, which is telling me to down jet.

I figured I'd post what I have and see what some people think.

alukit

malossi 4p

polini phbg

tecno circuit

no air leaks, timing set correctly

ngk b7hs plug

I have a 78 jet in now.

I started at 90 and worked down this far.

Everyone in the wiki is like 88 or sometimes higher for this setup.

What am I doing wrong, or what should I look at changing?

thanks

problem solved.

The gun I was using to try and set the cdi had to be funky.

whether i put the cdi at full advance or retard, all my marks always showed in same spot.

Got timing right.

80 jet in.

oh my god fast (i have a polini geared tall and am not used to all the redic low end)

the circuit pipe is wicked for low end on a tomos... best cheap pipe for tomos ever! my next build is another polini on a a35 with a circuit and phva 17.5.... nice everyday rider
