    Make it faster.

    Put on a cobra header and muffler,K+n filter.That will get you to about 62 mph.Use 94 ultra Sunoco gas.

    you really can't squeeze any extra speed out of a fixed ratio shaft drive trike. More speed would have to equal higher engine RPM
    My Rides:
    JUST BOUGHT 1984 250R
    1984 YTM225DXL owned since Feb. 2004 , 88 TRX300 4x4, 84 YT125 , 90 LTF250 , and 86 KLF300
    Also various other non running things takin up space

    My properly jetted, DG piped, uni filtered '84 225DX with 22" rear tires will only do 45 - 50 tops. Without miraculasly adding a 6th gear or seriously modifying the rev limiter, valve springs, cam profile and rear tire diameter, the fixed ratio rear will not allow you to go any faster.
