My bumblebee gets 160mpg! Not sure about 2 stroker speed you're saying 30?? Hmmm, I run really fast for a bumblebee @ 30 on flat I tune the carb two times a year in Florida, cold dry weather vs. hot muggy. This is not recommeded, but I ride with Mr. Bumblebee and I beg him to tune mine lean so no one beats me when we ride in a pack. I think factory out of the box are tuned around 27mph with a safe fuel/air carb setting. (still over 1 mph per cc - 4 strokes don't have the power 2 strokes have, no way)

I will do calculations next time my HT shifter bike is running, but I know for sure that due to my high gear (6th gear) and low rpm riding style, the mileage on my HT bike has increased considerably.

2stroker- I always thought the smaller the engine- the better the fuel milage should be. Maybe that was wrong.
A 26cc doing 30 mph is very good. Here in NY I need lights, so I have onboard generation (a scooter motor driven by the engine) causing some engine drag.

On the speed per cc-I like the 4 stroke engines. I also get to speed quite quickly.
The 79 has 3 speeds and the 212 doe-[end quote]

It goes 150 m.p.g. I have heard that some other kits are going 150m.p.g. using the bigger 4stroke engines but i see them only going 80 to a hundred tops. The kit i use runs at 7,000 i run it at 6,000 and gets excellent gas milage i thought. What does your kit claim to get and do you have a milage counter? I bets its nice riding in new york are you in the city or towards the country more?

It goes between 27 and 30 when i top out. I took the screen outta my muffler and seemed to run better. When i get to the bottom of a hill im usually going 33. But that doesn't last to long.It goes back to 27-30mph usually depending on the terrain. I heard those guys gotta slot car track in orange city. I like the track off 434 i got some sweet spider frame cars i race.
