Is this good for having a 28mm carb, 72cc kit and an exhaust?

+7.5:1 gears

Get a AM vari and a set of weights, Im pretty sure 70+ is what you should be hitting with that setup.

an "AM vari" ? whats that?

a highspeed pulley in general would help. But i dont think that a pulley alone it going to jump his top end upwords of 70. But i do believe that set should pull like 65mph. Im not sure at this point. Call and talk to VT cycles. they might have some tuning advice.

Wow... how the * do you slide on your face like that? That could be a sweet dance move haha... Might be because his center of gravity is off due to being 4ft tall.

where are you getting your 57mph reading from? and under what conditions? flatout/downhill/with or against wind/temp

I'd say mid 60 is likely with that setup dialed in

OUCH!!!!....worst case of rug burn.

Anywho ... with 7.5:1 gears you should be doing a lot better then that. What are you other tranny mods???
