With that kit it should be pretty quick in lambretta terms,but if you are used to riding a motorcycle it'll feel like your riding a stunned slug.

JL or JollyMoto have curly pipes that stay under the footboard, I think Gialnelli used to do one but not seen it advertised anywhere. I also think Casa might have one but can't seem to find any info on it anywhere.

Just been where you are now with the Mugello 186.

Started with 26mm delorto 15 sprocket with Li150 gear box and 42 clubman. Changed front sprocket to 16 tooth, 30mm delorto and MB/BGM clubman stayed with Li 150 box.
Dynod by Dan at scoorerotica, nearly 17bhp and great scooter to ride. Had 69.2 mph (gps) down the bypass, more than enough for me.

That's as good as you're going to get from a 186, the only way that you'll get a higher top speed is by fitting an expansion pipe which will allow the motor to rev higher. If 7,000 rpm = 69.2 mph then 8,000 rpm will get you an extra 7 or 8 mph.
