Put on a cobra header and muffler,K+n filter.That will get you to about 62 mph.Use 94 ultra Sunoco gas.

you really can't squeeze any extra speed out of a fixed ratio shaft drive trike. More speed would have to equal higher engine RPM

My properly jetted, DG piped, uni filtered '84 225DX with 22" rear tires will only do 45 - 50 tops. Without miraculasly adding a 6th gear or seriously modifying the rev limiter, valve springs, cam profile and rear tire diameter, the fixed ratio rear will not allow you to go any faster.
