New member! Honda elite S, seeking more speed

I need to try that, when cold it doesn't have a problem, it's only once it warms up fully it loses power. I've gotta figure it out somehow but it must be an air leak, is there any common point for them to leak? Crank seals?

So I tried checking for any leaks, that test was negative, no changes anywhere, don't believe there is an air leak, it really is having a problem with power once it's warmed up, loses like half the power. I'm unsure what it is, plug is pretty lean looking, and I'm running an 87, which is much larger than most guys put in their de restricted stock scoots. So I'm stumped. Any possible suggestions would be great. Thanks.

Greetings:

87 Main is too big. Runs great cold, but turns rich and kills power when it warms up. Transmission changes won't fix the power loss. Put in a 78 or 82 and test. Where did you even find an 87?

I thought it was too rich, everyone told me that, but if it's too rich why is my plug turning white? Shouldn't it be black? That's why I'm confused, it makes sense running good when cold, like a choke is on, more fuel, runs good, then it's too rich, and it lacks power, too lean normally pings and can make more power (till it blows) so I'm unsure, the plug bein white is why I thought lean.

I posted a picture of the plug, it's on the page before.
