The stock motor is 2 bolt 23cc?
Do you have pipe yet?

Just read your other ppst. DBXL is stock.
Zen G320 is good...but you are still gonna want a pipe.

You could get a head kit for your stock motor....bring it up to 29cc's. DDM has one on sale now.

Thanks for the welcome guys. yep dbxl came stock with the 23 . It goes ok .still with stock pipe .have orderd a new pipe from ddm (dominator) should be here on Wednesday 3 rd. hopefully. What's this head kit and how hard will it be to install compared to installing a new motor also new to me ( installing new motor never done before) . My wife said why am I buying new pipe it's all ready got a pipe. And it's only a week old ( buggy dbxl) I said because it sounds better.

Thank you so much. it helps having someone to talk about this stuff

Here's a nice cylinder kit for you http://www.davesmotors.com/esp-earth-surfer-ported-modified-30-5cc-big-bore-combo-kit-4-hp.html it should make 4.3hp or more! Vs your stock cylinder makes 2hp so it's a good upgrade, now if you want to go further here's another motor, it's a long block, it makes 5.2 hp which is impressive for how small it is

Head kits are kind of tricky cuz there is alot of small parts so if you can handle it, go for it, but I'd personally go for the obr long block becyase it makes more power ? but it's your choice just stating my opinion

If you get the obr, send photos, love those motor, also what oil you running for the engine? When you break in the new engine or head kit, for the VERY FIRST gallon of fuel make it a 24:1 gas/oil mixture and then for the rest of the engines life use 28:1, it will make your life much easier when it comes to tuning.
