The end of a project.
Perhaps I was hoping to secretly find a way to get the 150cc to gain another 10MPH, for cheap; however, I've spent way too much time, effort, pain, and money on it already.

No worries.
I've just removed the box, and opened it.
There is really little to no intake limitation in the airbox.
It's a square box, with an air inlet at the end (towards the rear wheel), a...

If I were to drill a...

The formula is very simple.
If 7k is your desired rpm, and your current speed is ~55 mph, and you want to be doing ~65mph at that rpm,
Your ratio change will be:
65/55= 1.182
You can either...

Too bad to hear this. The condor / X-Pro/Lifan/Vader 150 has more to give with an 18t front and 31t rear sprocket.
That's almost 1/3rd taller gears, meaning 1/3rd less rpm or it still should get you...

For bigger bikes than 250cc, I would go with Japanese brands.

Get a BMW, Honda, Kawa, or Suzuki variant. Preferably...

I did a 2 stroke oil in gas test on my Honda Rebel 250 a few years ago, and the ideal ratio is between 1:100 and 1:300, with 1:128 being the easiest one due to one gallon of fuel needing one oz of...

I bought the 150, because a 125 with 4 gears was probably going to be too slow (acceleration between 35-55mph), while at the same time, with the right gearing should get better mpg than a 250....

Thanks.
Upon review, I probably could have installed the rear shock before the front tire, I could have done the whole unboxing by myself.
Doing the front tire first was my mistake.
