x_xWhat about final drive gear ratios? Ive been hunting down ways to increase my top speed. At low idle, my bike wont sit still. I have to hold the brake or my bike will take off. (The Power!!) I pulled the motor from a larger 150cc bike and created a monster. The frame is from a lighter bike almost 30+ pounds lighter, blue CDI with short tail pipe, and with proper inflated tires, (12" rear wheel with a 4.00 tire) she will do 57 / 60 all day. Problem is, she get to top speed to fast. Not so much a problem in a lot of areas but the goal wasn't so much a racer, but to be able to do close to 70mph. The goal isn't sustainability, but to know for a short burst, she will fly. The bike minus the blue CDI, custom suspension, and the lighted frame, is stock. I know about the Dr Pully upgrades and roller weights, also I have a custom intake underway. I know they will increase either RPM or sight HP gains somewhere on the map but I want a for sure fire gear upgrade. Im a light driver at 170lbs so there is no problem with weight anywhere on the board, the bike fires down when you give it a squeeze. So far Ive outran 5 original 150cc bikes, 2 times uphill, and each of them cheated with a 3 car lead on the way back and still was able to run them down with ease. Please help me make this bike into all she can be.
