If you remove the governor you would be taking control of your motor from the engineers who designed it as a stationary powerplant. Your call !

did you instal a return spring on the engine to reset your throttle that could be what you are missing or its not in a good spot to snap the throttle closed
also you know the governor makes there engines useless 1000+-RPMs of useable band isnt enough to ride basically it idles at 2000-2200 clutch engages at 2700+- and you run out of engine at 3600 i would think more about pulling it out its a easy task and there are alot of step by steps on AGKs site and on youtube the engine is fine up to 5500RPM some push it more than that just get a tachometer AGK sells a few and you can get them a few other places to
I am thinking on taking the motor out and sent it to a mechanic so they can remove the governor out since I dont mechanic availability
Hello C.O.A.,I have to "Gov" still in Mine...The stock spring will work if You loosen the screw that holds the hand control (the arm that You have the cable on) a little. I also put a dab of silicon on the threads for vibration pruffing and let cure overnight....Only trouble I have is it only needs about 1/8 turn of My twist grip for wide open....Makes it kind of twitchie till I got use to it....Tigmaster....
no mechanic will pull out the governor for you, and even if he would it's a waste of money for such a simple job. working on an engine may seem like a daunting task but it really isn't and you would need to try to break something. just follow agk's instructions, they explain it perfectly. don't tell yourself that you aren't good at wrenching, you just need to follow instructions and it will be just fine. i wouldn't use a centrifugal clutch with a governor, it will wear out the clutch at low speeds and you won't get much usable rpms.
btw, i didn't tear my side cover gasket i think it's like some sort of plastic fiber material. i did rip my head gasket, though, but you don't need to take the head off.
