MOPED ARMY

Yeah... but remember.. the point here is not to 'win'... its to get useful comparisons... (even for your own mods)

But it is VERY tempting to push off.

But that ruins any chance for useful comparisons... because If I REALLY want a fast take off I run alongside 3 or 4 quick steps pushing hard.. and then hop on... and that would lower those times a LOT!...

So be patient.. and accept that everybody else is doing the same. .. (they better.. or I will contract with the MA to send an assassination squad !! )

C O O O L !!!

Haha... I knew my PA50I was slow... but I didn't think it was that slow !... lol

Wow.... those are some pretty fast numbers (to me).

Made some mods here in the last week though... I'm comin after you guys.. ; )

Casey, you know you were on a hill! Your grande tops at 28mph on flat. I remember when we were neck and neck when we both had stock grandes? We were riding up 3rd street in Covington. :)

Downhill cheater ! ... ; )

Shaved me head I did... Haven't put it on yet though.

I've come to the conclusion that the biggest fault with the PA50I is the teeny tiny little reed valve... things I've done that should have made more diff... haven't.

Wasn't planning on the BBQ as of now...

I got my stock Tomos from 0-25 in 8.38 seconds

no mods at all and still has the stock exhaust

I was thinking it only went around 28, too.

Anyway, both my 1978 Puchs go 0-25 in 11 seconds. I can't go faster than 28 on flatground either, though. ; )

sweet

that's why i need a better exaust, fewer and fewer people are going 28 mph

p.s. if just a belt can make you gain 5 mph, Chris needs that belt. haha.

I said from the beginning we will just have to allow for the fact that the speedo's are not all that accurate.

More important tnan that though... is honesty... no pushing off with your feet... and doing it without the wind at your back... and on flat ground... those are all HUGE factors.

A "cheater" could easily drop 5 or 6 seconds.

Now an update... from changes I made in the last week... I am now down at 19 seconds for 0-25 ... big improvement.

And I still have to clean the carb.

And its cold as hell... my bike hates the cold.

And for anybody who lists from now on... list your body weight also... that way we know if that has an effect... (a 100# guy has a big advantage over a 200# guy)

Mine is 180 or 185 lbs.

0-25 in 9 seconds first run second run 10 seconds on a mostly stock suzuki fz 50 (lowered needle only mod)

I noticed you didn't include any of your own 'honestly achieved' ped times there Mr KDX sir...

(and no... not with your KDX!)

Fred - I will post some 0-25 times for the '77 Peugeot 103SP as soon as i get a chance to actually make some runs and time them. I am going out in the morning with the KDX - so i may give you some times for it too.
