What is the approximate top speed for a stock 78 PUCH Newport? I’m getting about 25 on straight away. Stock carb and air box

25 is correct
^ and correctable! :)
Yeah, you might be able to do a couple things to your stock setup and get closer to 30, but you are feeling the top speed of that pony.
They made three versions 1hp 20hp, 1.5hp 25mph and 2hp 30mph
So 25 MPH is correct if it’s a 1.5 hp model but if it says 2hp on side plate you should be going 29-31mph stock speeds and with a bit of tuning nothin major close to 35mph,
Add a performance pipe, air filter, jetting changes and a re-gear of a bit bigger front sprocket or smaller rear sprocket you can get near 40 mph,
