Wow where do you guys ride in NYC?
I guess it depends, my Streaker is pretty fast and still has the governor but it has a TAV which helps make it more rideable.

Maybe you guys no something that I dont, bit what's the point of doing any modifications to a stock industrial engine governed to run at 3600 rpm if you aren't going to remove the governor? You just end up with a more expensive engine that still runs at 3600 rpm, no?

Because it will still run better :thumbsup: I would just rejet the carb and with a header and air cleaner it will run much better and there is a trick you can do to the governor to give you a few more rpm's :thumbsup:

If I do remove the governor what do you need after a billet rod and a flywheel ?
That's a good start but from there it is only limited by your wallet and how fast you want to go :laugh: but if you are going that far you might as well get a cam and a head :thumbsup: There are a few good guys here you can talk to, astrowrench and trinik7597 :thumbsup:

$$$$ , no limit ! , what are your goals ? if you want to go 40 to 60 miles per hour you'll need good internal engine mods or crazy gearing which will eliminate all bottom end power , minor mods (jet , intake and header ) will really wake these motors up ! You may only go 30 to 35 mph but it'll get ya there like a rocket !

You could get crazy and build something like my drag bike (bring your wallet)
but that would not be useful to you I don't think. Too much, too specialized.
