RG150 electric start?

[avgas]

Okay "my friend" took it on the motorway and it capped at 180. Was doing a bit of reading on the bike and people say it's due to the gearing ratio/rev limiter thingy. Apparently you can get them well past 200 but the gearing might incinerate due the the high rpm, not too keen as I actually like the bike and are pretty rare.

Nah they don't have speedo restriction like the other bikes - as they were sold new here. Trick is to get the power valves to "drop-the-hammer" at about 10,500 rather than the usual "dial-down" through the whole range.
Gearbox is sweet - I thrashed the shit out of mine til it blew up at 24,000. Mate bought it, did a rebuild - said gearbox looked almost new.

Well, we didn't really help you. But if you want some really good advice then you should try racing it!

You guys helped me with the indicator problem...

I'd love to go around a circuit and get my knee down. But don't have any friends that have bikes that I can chase/be chased. Would one of you kind folk like to invite me to a track day? :P

You dont need to get your knee down or have to beat someone just to have a blast on the track. Look out for the track days advertised on KB and get yourself along to one. Trust me, you'll be addicted after the first lap!

I am rather young and yes it is, comes in really small packages delivered by small people. Lol.

Picked it up for a bargain I reckon. Want a TR110 or TR50 to get to and from town and then use this vacuum packed awesomeness on the weekends and nights for a nice long curvy ride.

Kinda sad these only get up to 180km/h, not that i've been that fast on it

RG150 Speedo is inaccurate at higher speeds (in an optimistic way) anyway.

1) all are
2) its a percentage over whole range - 1 speed is no major diff over another % wise
3) my RG speedo showed me 220 once, so 180kph (real) is VERY possible. But you need serious mods to get to that level.
