1. You didnt even -ask- a question about the paint..........go reread it.

2. Stock MPH will never be agreed on for exactly one speed because there are too many variables in the world, but Id say anywher from 50mph to low 50's.

3. Engine Degreaser, a Hose, a cloth and your -hand-.

My 84 dx motor is the same way. As for top speed look for right around 50mph, back in the day it was radared at 49mph in the 3wheeling mag.
