Re: My GZ 's top speed seems low

Put the bike in neutral and blip the throttle.
If the revs hang up before coming back down, you have an air or vacuum leak somewhere that is limiting your overall power delivery.

Check the air filter for leaves or something similar glogging up the port.

There luckily aren't too many things that it could be, so we'll get through this.

Just by chance, have you checked your chain tension? A very tight chain will limit you there as well.
