Man Richie I love these built as hell 2 strokes and crazy how fast they are. I remember I raced a piped and jetted Yamaha Seca 750 and I was running low 13's and these things at 80cc are beating them. My best friend had an RD 350 and I rode it a bunch of times and man that was crazy fast for low displacement by street bike standards. Good stuff man keep up the great video!
@RichieAsmusАй бұрын
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. These bikes are pretty impressive. I had a Yamaha 600 Seca II for awhile. That was a pretty good bike but not even close to these little scooters haha. Even my old 91 Ninja 600r was probably slower.

I'm guessing they run the 1/8th on some of those due to the short gearing. Considering they're running ~90mph, I bet they would top out pretty quick in the 1/4.
@RichieAsmusАй бұрын
I was wondering if that's the case too. Maybe the Yamaha ZR CVT has a taller final ratio than the Honda Dio CVT. Or maybe they're just too sketchy past the 1/8th haha
