38 is about all u can expect stock. get a high speed pulley kit from www.vtcycles.com with that u can expect 45mph. they sell tons of parts for that. u can get it over 100 if u have the $$$.

i think theres a problem cuz i live in montreal canada. so i dont think they will ship it to me and if i do it would be 2X the $$ . would i be able to do the same thing i did to my spree and sand my intakemanifold? :wink:


thnx for the help by the way
