Whats that in MPH,,,i got a brain fart at the moment...

133 kilometer/hour = 82.642 mile/hour (mph)

Remember
1 kilometer/hour = 0.621 mile/hour or at 80KPH your speed is roughly 50 MPG

Had Phazers and an Exciter that had KPH scale easier to read than the MPH scale. GOt used to the conversion. Also onlineconversion.com has easy to use charts.

should top at 100 "MPH" ours does that with enough real estate....

Check the basics...clean clutch, clean carbs, good plugs.

Should pull a little bit more than that if it's stock gears.

In the right conditions mine has seen 103-105 on the speedo. Normally I'll be able to see 95-100 on the speedo.

i have just finished cleaning the clutches and the carbs and put new plugs in it and it is still slow. i am going 2 bring it to a dealer but before i do i want to do a compression test. does anyone know what thecompression should be for this machine.
