90 it was th scootertronics gravitational upgrade package only 29.95 lol. Mt high spped run spot might be downhill(13 degrees someone told me ages ago ) but its a spot none the less . Where I live anywhere thats not bumper to bumper traffic its a high speed run area . Jake

Do what you gotta do jake. I just don't count my downhill escapades as top speed runs. I live in flatlands though, can't really say I have any downhill spots to try. I got a STRONG tailwind one night and got to around 60MPH on a mild 70cc... to be fair I'd have to note that I was doing about 30-35MPH into that wind. I'd normally top out at 50-55MPH. I wonder what your scoot did up the 13 degree incline. 13 degrees doesn't sound like much, but take another look at that illustration. I made your line at 13 degrees. Looks like it would be enough for a serious difference in top end to me. I went back and double checked and you never mentioned the 13 degree decline when you first started telling us about going over 100MPH. I'm not trying to get on your case bud, just pointing out that it should have been mentioned at the time for accuracy.

If it isn't Bonniville it isn't a record. Just kidding, looks like I'm going to Puerto Rico for my Honeymoon.

+1 for 82 on the flat. It would be -1 for no gear but it would be jealousy since I never did anything that karazy at your age jowieperformance . Rock on brother and be safe. [glow=red,2,300] La Extraterrestre rules [/glow] Peace & Pistons Tiger.

90gtr The line in example illistration 13degrees? Hell then whatever 1/4 of that angle comes out to be if that much . if you ran a skateboard down the stretch of highway you would have a very slow 3 mile ride . if that helps you have a better understanding. BTW having the fastest scooter on a website isnt what i would call a life achievment so their is no reason to lie . The biggest achievement modding scooters is the learning experiance of thinking up new ideas and the creativity in thinking outside the box . Both of which might not have speed involved at all. SHOOKAPARTS bike was a syling , bobber project and GY6 rocket was a handling project and both ae as impessive as a fast scoot anyday , Jake

My goals where never to see how fast a top speed I could attain from a 150cc scooter . If that was the case I would have went 61mm bore ( akunar has pistons that size ) to keep meat around the sleeve for cylinder strenth . then bolted on that mini supercharger they have for the gy6( yes Strata they do make one Earl has the site URL very $$$) at least a 40mm carb with a nos bottle . More parts would be needed but you get the idea . My goal was to have greater cruising speeds so my sons and I could go riding through the pocono mountains . After the Sunl scoot was found to be very unstable i bought older son a suzuki 650 Savage . And if you have kids you dont want to be as fair as possible so I bought younger son the 883 sportster . The only scooter I have left is the Roketta MC-54-150 with the 206cc Big block gy6 jake

I understand that you may not have been going for the fastest scooter ever. Thinking that you were running down the side of a mountain to get your speed and having others expect that out of a similar setup is why I commented.

90GTV it was a slight grade I assure you . if you get 3-4 mph extra i would be REALLY suprised . Any body from Montgomery county pa ? northeast extention is a well used route > Someone might know of it.... jake

I believe you. When I said "thinking that you were running down the side of a mountain", that was regarding your original comment about the grade. Sorry if that was unclear.

90g I wasnt being deceptive , it didnt even cross my mind being only 13 degrees . jake Damn jake.... Hate to say it man, really do, but the credibility factor of you speed #'s.... just hit the toilet. Small, even innocent deceptions, when regarding speed #'s like you were evoking, don't wash. That's whay I originally suggested Maxton, Bonneville, Drag Strips. If you're gonna boast about #'s like that, get 'em posted officially. Funny thing is, all those tracks are level. Damn....post any more numbers jake....post 'em on an officially sanctioned time sheet. Nothing else is gonna float for you and speed claims. Sorry dude, but you dug your own hole on that one. Guys around here are looking for real world #'s they can duplicate or exceed, and the world wide standard for speed runs is flat, straight, and level. 59mm engine, that can do 100mph....I knew you was blowing smoke....damn....what a shame.

This is a scooter site . The day CREDIBILITY put money in my pocket then ill care .... Harry yes I have a new buell and a new harley . the harley is done and the buell is getting new cyclinders (1442cc upgrade ) and the BEST parts money can buy in a proffectional racing shop know to be one of the best . NrHS . while the Buell is in the shop I bought a ZONGshen 250-5 just to kick around in . The MOWER has 3000$ worth of the best parts you can buy .and does fly for a mower . Kliff im suprised at you .... Being you actualy raced im supprised your taking this so seriously . If the guyhad came up to me and told me I went 82 or 92 that would be what I have wrote here why would a stranger lie for no reason ?.. Actually your set up is going to be the same ? you take your bike to bonneville ... I have to go 30 miles to find a FLAT straitaway . The notheeast extention has a grade wow big deal? If peoples lives are so hollow that how fast someone scooter goes and has to have timesheets because its so important thats sad . And Harry like I said before dont get poed because I am sucessful monitarily and you went broke ... would you like me to pull up the site where you where confessing this ? or did you pull it off of your military ? site

Jake,
Money isn't a substitute for credibility.
When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

XS this is just ridiculous!!! Why would ANYONE lie about what top speed a scooter hit . Its just not that important . the the guy that was riding on the highway also said I hit 102 the bike was going fast wheels hopping( not greeat tires ) and the speedos on these things only go up to 80 and it was pegged. what would you think ?80, 90 100 had to tllll the differance your not breaking the sound barrier . and dammit . again the point is if I can Buy whatever I lie why lie about a scooter ... we dont even know one another .... i gave the motor away for free . bought anouther big block kit and gave the whole bike away for free . its fun to see what you can get out of them but once the project is done the fun is really over . i am only keeping one bike the MC-54-150 which KS is building that Big block 206cc gy6 with alll the exotic parts .. At least it can be used on highway for long trips and have higher cruisiing speeds than a stock chinese 250 . I am not going to a track have it timed and use up a god weekend . A track day to meet everyone would be nice . but not to prove anything just to meet and greet . .. again these are not important enough. And as far as money is conserned Harry has always bitched about spending money on working bikes and ....wasting .. money . When i read he was going broke it all came togeher .....Look KLiff is doing same set up if it goes 100 great if it doesnt the guy on the F1 was bs ing me for some ? odd reason . but im not catching sh!t for lieing when i wasnt . Once i get the tourin bike up this I wont be on anyway ive moved on to the Buell as far as working a bike . Ill take it up on a track day at Pocano raceway . i do prefer actuall conversations not internet conversations . And there is no doubt what any bike does its recorded . jake

And Klidff the bike wasnt fast because of displacement 59mm vs 63 is only 20cc. these bikes all have nothing to speak of , come on 250cc is nothing , it was high compression and that is why i gave it away, too unreliable

You used to promote high performance AND reliability....now the engines were unreliable. You're a constant contradiction jake. And it's because I was a racer that I do take it personally. Racers and engine builders KNOW how hard speed is to attain, how hard HP is to pull out of a lump of metal. B/S'ers that know nothing but a key board and a check book, only imagine how big the tale they tell, should be. Then when things start closing in...track days, people wanting to see this marvel of speed....it gets parted out.....cool move jake. I can only hope K&S dis-associates themselves of any promotional posts you've made in their favor....cause you obviously have no regard for anyone, nor anything, you seem to think money can buy it all. Credibility, like respect, are both earned though. Not bought. Sorry man, I was overlooking a lot to try to befreind you. But this is it, far as I'm concerned, go hang with the H-D guys... you and your check book will fit right in.

i think jake is a nice guy, and means well but i gotta admit, he completely lost me at "downhill" i never understood why people post speeds they attain going downhill....we can all probably all hit 60+ mph on a BICYCLE with a big enough hill....but who cares ?
