65mph! Okay, don't think so some how with just those mods, 55mph tops. I used to have a ped when i was 16, mine had simlar mods and never got anymore than 50mph, those 50cc's would't pull the skin off a rice puddin!

I had a Honda CB50-J
It was rubbish, really reliable but was dangerously slow!

i just sold my trusty ts50 i managed 2 cover 11k miles on it since january it had 70cc bigbore std after market exhaust and was geared all it could go up 2 teeth on the front and down 8 on the back (43tooth zr50 sprocket) i only managed 2 get 63mph out of it with with wind and 67mph down hill twice but it would pull 55-60 most days with a fresh piston i holed 1 and went through 4 chain and sprocket kits  no doubt ill buy one again in years to come if there is such thing as 2-strokes then !! |

My 1976 Suzuki AP50 did 68 mph down the bypass on long gearing, micron and the obligatory drop bars, no jet change cos we didnt know how or care, i weighed 10 stone wet thru. No FS1E ever went that fast in this town hahaha.

Yea 55 was about right for an AP fs1e standard would be lucky to hit 45, you could make the fizzys go well tho.
