    Higher compression and camshaft should help. Mine has a 10.25 compression piston, stock cam, perfomance exhaust, 14 and 40 sprockets, and peaks out at 80.3 km/hr. I would think a performance camshaft might add a little more revs and speed.

    Sprocket change would be the easiest way... But what you gain on top end, you will lose on bottom...

    Get out your wallet and you can make a 200X stay up with a 350X or a 250R..............

    Did you already try putting a performance exhaust on it? It will get rid of all of the flat spots..

    Also, going up a couple of teeth on the front sprocket can give you a bit more top end.

    I have to correct a fairly major error that would leave someone in frustration if they relied on it. My 200x does not go 97km/hr. That must have been a mistake in my gps. I had it out on the weekend and pass after pass down a gravel road, I could not get it much over 80km/hr on the gps.

    if u drop a couple teeth on the rear that will help a bit . i did tha and it worked good but i also did allot more than that .. im running 12:1 wisco piston, bigger carb, bassani exhaust with a ported head. it all comes down to how much are you willing to pay for a good top end speed ?
    down to parts because i no longer have a place to ride trikes.

    GIT IT RAAAGGGGG !!!!
