Default 190 lb rider looking at buying a 49cc Zeimini dirt bike (CAG), please advise...

Im looking at buying a Zeimini cag 49cc dirt bike off of ebay. Im 190 lbs and I just have a couple of questions.

Does anyone else my size ride dirt pocket bikes?

I know that it wont be fast or durable but I only need it for light cottage use on a gravel driveway, and im really only attracted because there so inexpensive (I know that i'll get what I pay for).

I also would like to know what would be the best upgrade to increase the acceleration of the bike?

Im not really interested in top speed (10-15kph would be fine) but I want it to accelerate cleanly. Would a larger sized rear sprocket do the trick?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

if i were you i wouldnt buy it the frame will snap under your weight im 140 pounds and my suspension snapped and same with the rear shock i never even jumped it or anything, as far as acceleration goes not much you cant do except a better clutch but it doesnt really have the power

I am going to have to disagree friend, beef up the welds around the steering neck and the rear shock mounts,you can`t jump houses or anything,just made for gravel and light terrain all 47cc cag parts and hi-po parts fit the mini dirts,except the exhaust,i mean for 149 bucks(usd) what do you expect,they run just as good as a cag IMHO, If you get one make sure its the giovanni,they seem to be somewhat better,the seller on ebay will have some in at the end of the month,so he says the sellers name on ebay is allstarselaz ,john is a good guy
