Guys I need honest answers here. I've gotten my bike up to about 22mph on a straightaway, the other day, my brother's bike got the same and my neighbor, about that too. We are all about 200lbs. Is this about right for these bikes? All propaganda aside, how fast do you folks really go on these bikes. By fast I mean all out, full throttle. I know these aren't top fuel drag bikes, and if 22mph is about it, then I'm happy; however, if my engine is tuned incorrectly or my fuel mix is off, then I need to know. My brother's is mixed at 32:1 and mine is close to that. My neighbor's is about the same. My bro's engine is the biggest that DAX sells, my should be around 65cc. My neighbor's is 50cc, I think. Our engines are bone stock.

my 49cc could probably hit 65km/h on a really long straight away, although i weigh around 165

is your engine stock? What's your fuel mix?

mine did 39.5 on a slight incline the other day. there is a lot of work in an 8000 rpm motor though

Mine does about 25-27 on a flat level road, give me a slight grade to go down and I can get it up to over 30 and hold it there. Over 200 lbs and I have the 67/80cc motor with the stock sprocket.

I was clocked at 29mph riding next to my buddy's car. And I have small 20 inch wheels and weigh 185. I have the 66cc motor on an old swchinn. I runs much better now that i changes the carb jet down to .65mm. Still need some tuning.

22-24mph is typical for a new stock engine with 28mph after break-in. With a little tuning and slant head you can usually get up to 30-34mph. Many of those who claim very high numbers are using a speedometer set for kph but choose to read it as mph. Or just plain lying. I specially get a kick out of those guys who go 55-60mph with a 44t sprocket (rolleyes.gif).
