[Honda-C70] Re: Top Speed - Windshield makes a real difference

 

The easiest way to get 2 to 4 mph on the top end is to put on an aftermarket windshield... eBay about $50. That gets you more top end without losing the hill climbing ability. I routinely get 42 to 44 mph where before I was in the 38-40 range. Anything you can do to make
that little engine work less. I wouldn't change the gearing, the bike isn't able to keep up with traffic on any sort of hill anyway.
