Who Wants To Go 65mph on a FD?

Are you sure it's not a quality engine? It's used on popular gopeds
like the GSR46. If it can go to 18K rpm it would have to be a
very balanced engine. There's tons of goped vids using this
engine. I'm not an expert on gopeds, but this engine looks like
a ripper.
Yes, it's a POWERFUL!! ENGINE. I've had several of them.

It does well with a China Girl poo poo pipe, up to 53mph+.

MB member chevygod had great success with the 460.

With an SBP pipe, this engine becomes so quiet, I'd swear I could hear the piston ring scraping the cylinder at an idle!

Your MB WILL fly!! with a shift kit.
And throw chains at 5,000rpm, if the sprockets are misaligned.

On the first one, the bell housing broke off a piece the size of a penny, when I overtightened the mounts.
And the bellhousing is part of the block!

Ten years ago, this was well priced at $250.
The 460 was compact and weighed less than 8lbs and fit the standard 78mm clutch.

Now we have the $99 212cc Predator engine.
 
If it does 53mph on a goped, it surely will
do 60 mph plus on an MB because the
diameter of the wheels are larger.
 
Bone stock the gp460 has 4.3 hp, good for 55+mph. You'll need at least 5 to get 60+mph. Also with friction drive your wheel size doesn't matter, just the roller and engine rpm. Pretend the roller is in direct contact with the ground instead.
