Hi

to the forum

before buying anything it may be worth cleaned out (decoking) the exhaust system & exhaust port. I know I'm only about 8½ stone but on a stock RXS on a flat road under neutral conditions I could get up to the high 60's.

with small bikes rider weight does have a bearing on top speed/performance but I would guess anyone could get 60 on the flat out of an RXS

You really do have to wring the neck on the RXS 100

I rode around for a couple of months riding it hard, or so i thought, and managed medioicre speeds.

I then took a Suzuki 500 out, and afterwards the poor little RXS felt pedestrian, but I rode it like I stole it, and it was quicker than it ever had been. Im 14 stone, and used to get 70 on dual carriageways after a while, and would sit at 60 - 65 quite happily on country lanes.

If cleaning the carb, new spark plug, and a decent de-coke dont improve things as much as you hope, just push the thing as hard as you can. They seem to handle abuse very well.
