I have a stock carburator and exhaust and mine goes 37 mph. How fast do your go, and any ideas to make it faster?
 
21-22 at the most. But I can gear down and climb a 25% grade by myself and a ~17% grade with a passenger - no pedaling.

Over 25, aren't we getting into the need 4 bigger tires, better brakes, motorcycle helmets. more protective clothing, and all the rest?. I have my BikeE2 recumbent tandem, with GX35 and Nu Vinci auto hub, and a BMW Dakar 650. They are different machines for different purposes.
 
My Bike Is Fast!

I've got the fastest bike on the island! No one is faster than me!

But then again, I haven't seen any other motorized bikes on the island.

Since I'm the only bike on the island, then I must be the fastest bike on the island.

All kidding aside, my bike is too fast for me. I like to cruise @ 30mph. And yes, I have the big brakes, big tires, motorcycle helmet, dirt bike gloves, chest protector, elbow/forearm guards, knee/shin guards and Red Wing work boots. My coworkers call me "The Transformer".
