How can I get a few more MPH out of my 1988 Yamaha Razz moped?

Question

my friends moped is about 3 mph faster than mine and i need to figure out some way to make mine go a little faster beside putting larger wheels on it. I drilled the exhaust and got about 4mph for doing that and am at about 32mph on level ground with no wind. Help me beat my friend!

Answer 1

Remove the Governor

Answer 2

Gear it a tooth or two taller. Either a larger front or smaller rear sprocket. It'll cost you acceleration though.

Answer 3

The easiest way to beat your friend is to kick his scooter over when you're riding along beside him.

Answer 4

Loose weight...either you or the bike
