ya it should go way faster than that. whats your compression like, what gearing are you running, whats your airfilter look like.

I used to own that pos airfooler years ago and it was bagged. That engine probably needs a good rebuild. It needs a new frame to, there is rebar welded on the rear of the frame for a makeshift grab bar.

if it was a pos then y did you want to trade a 250sx for it?

good compresion, stock gears, and a new uni filter,stock jets and everything, the only things not stock on it is the air filter, crab rebuild kit and new rear bearings.

Mostly b/c of the nostalgia, just some good memories with that bike.
