Is there any rather easy way of getting like 3-5 more mph out of my bike without doing any major changes? Currently runs 28-30mph on flat surface. (I'm about 215 pounds) Im not handy with a drill is the problem. Just curious if anything exists. Thanks!

easiest way, involbes no tools at all....
loose weight.
just joking bro. im a bigger guy too.
best bet is to upgrade your trans. pully, ramp, centerspring and weights.

Do this and take out the washer in the exhaust if it has a stock pipe

The sr is the unrestricted version of the s! there is no washer in the exhaust, thats why everyone buys the s.
some people dream of speed, i own your dreams!

I thought this guy wanted to go 35 on this and spend no money. Is there a variator travel restrictor on these? If so, remove. Same with the washer in the exhaust; if one is there bash it out.
For $20-$40, though, you could play with the front variator and get some more bottom end or top speed.
