Re: how fast is your ped?

the derbi is soon to be faster though because:
I dont tuck
15mm carb
wide ass tires
super SECRET custom pipe in the works.
see you all in september in SF
Re: how fast is your ped?
hahahahahahahahahah you guys crack me up with your top speed fantasys
Re: how fast is your ped?
You obviously don't understand the capabilities of the two stroke engine. If you notice, some of these top speeds are GPS confirmed. And if a cyclist can do 81mph, why can't a moped?

Re: how fast is your ped?
Dan T...you are the biggest fucking ass ever.
Don't believe it? Come to a rally old man.
Re: how fast is your ped?
Oh, and Dan, your biturbo maxi is not going 45.
Re: how slow are my peds?
Dan T, stop being a jealous hater. Come to some rallies and get blown away fool!
Also Dan T, you're not going 45mph on your Maxi. I have a 65cc Metrakit, Estoril exhaust, 16/16 SHA, bored intake, high-comp head, etc. and I barely go 45mph on my Maxi.
I think it was you Bret who was blasting around riding doubles on your Motobecane, passing everyone (me at least) at the last Sac rally, with two people. That was neat.
Re: how slow are my peds?
HEhehehehehehehehe
Re: Whey fast.
Not to beat a throughly dead horse, but:
"here is a video of a 80cc Puch going about 80mph.":http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcJJdNuvWXE&feature=related Granted, it does sound like he has gearing. You can imagine with the right single gear, an 80cc puch COULD go 70mph.
Come on Dan, believe this!
Re: Whey fast.
it says on the comments kreidler bottom end. seems to be sort of common over there, but still sweet. one of my fav euro puchs is that black one with red faded from the front that has a kreidler engine.
Re: Whey fast.
Yeah. The gears make a huge difference. Justin in Reno has a 50cc Suzuki 5 speed (I think) that goes over 50mph. Pretty rad still.
Re: how fast is your ped?
mine on its first ride in 22 years done 31 mph yesterday :)
(1972 honda pc50)
Re: how fast is your ped?
mine is about 20-23mph.... @ 25mph it boggs out. still needs some work. Thnik a dead battery is to blam. 1984 Suzuki FA50.
Re: how fast is your ped?
that sucks
Re: how fast is your ped?
25 flat 31 down hill maybe alittle more depending on wind and how cold night time is the fastest time in mass
Re: how fast is your ped?
77 garelli super sport - 24
77 motobecane 50v - 30
any suggestions on how to get the garelli going faster? its totally stock, i'm new to the garellis and would love to hear what you guys think would be the best.
Re: how fast is your ped?
really? i have a stock magnum and it goes about 33. I'm looking to add a kit and a new pipe, why does yours go so slow?
Re: how fast is your ped?
_any suggestions on how to get the garelli going faster? its totally stock_
It seems that a Garelli takes a bit of work to improve.
I've removed the airbox, smoothed, chamfered and port-matched the cylinder ports an intake manifold, brazed up a midimoto expansion pipe to fit and up-jetted.
I've not gained much top speed: 32 mph according to a "This is your speed" road-side speed detector, but top end acceleration is improved a bit. The bike will do an indicated 40mph on a slight or steep downhill, which is presumably rpm limited.
I'm going to try improving the exhaust-cykinder interface a bit and redtrict the muffler tailpipe size to try to bring the powerband down a bit.
Re: how fast is your ped?
Before: 1980 Puch Maxi. Stock bottom, aftermarket piston, hi-torque cylinder/head, techno estoril, 16/45 gearing and 14 bing, was hitting 31 mph.
After: roller bearing crank, 3 shoe clutch (getting ready for a kit) and the only other thing I changed was going down to a 14/45 gearing. I am now hitting 36 mph.
Problem was, with that taller front sprocket I was not letting the engine hit a higher RPM so the pipe could do its job. Now it has great acceleration AND good speed.
Re: how fast is your ped?
TRON = 51.7 with ever-torquey 11x39 gearing
