The dinstinct need for speed

Well I'm on a LF125GY-3 (as far as I'm aware)

Also known as a Hero Magellan here in the UK, Pic:

I've moved the battery to the air box location, put a performance air filter (off of my mini moto ha ha) onto it, re painted it, (will post some pics soon) and fitted a dominator front end (twin halogen headlamps etc) also had to fit a new rear numberplate bracket as it just couldn't take the abuse I was giving it. Removed the baggage rack and fitted new indicators all round, (something a little more stylish) also removed the exhaust. Yep thats right, straight out from the front pipe, silencer is still attached to the bike, but not inserted into the front pipe, makes a lot of noise but hasn't really sped the bike up.

But now.. the time has come for more speed, she tops out at 70MPH on a flat road. I was thinking CDI box but mines all ready de-restricted as it revs all the way up to 12RPM, I was thinking about fitting one of the Lifan 200CC engines, or one of the 250CC engines as they seem to maintain the same fitments just slightly taller, (thats a guess based on pictures)

Thinking maybe a bigger carb, any ideas?
