Top Speeds??

[Mr.Green]

I just got this new jem and have been bringing her back to life. I pretty much just got it running / driving. I used the GPS on my phone and got her up to a max of 30 mph. No governor, cleaned up the intake and exhaust ports and ground down the block near the valves. Im not sure what the gears are yet, havent counted them. 30 is kinda scary on an untested machine with rotted out tires. I think she still has a little left in her.

Whats your top speed and on what? Pictures and specs would be nice.

On mine, est at least 60 Km/H judged by keeping pace with a car on the road, 6.5 honda clone stock (gov in) , 12t-24t(JS)24t-72t gearing. This isn't flat out yet, there still some go left in it.

In this pic there is no seat and fender yet but the best full shot I have.

No pics since I'm away from home though.
