Welcome from St. Pete. Congrats on the purchase. Hard to believe that it only has 642 miles on it and it is 4 years old. Last owner must not have done a lot of riding.

Welcome to the Forum and congrats on your new scoot. The Stage 1 kit is the removal of the air filter backplate and installation of a hi flow air cleaner, and a carb jet. It lets the engine breath way better.[&:]
