Does anyone know the speed of a HP G2D when it is stock? I am thinking
about buying one, but I don't know if it is worth it.

the regular non-HP g2d is almost exactly the same speed! 2 ppl in my
neighbrhood have em and i easily burn them all i have modded on mine is a .675
spindle w/ 3rd bear. the dude took off his muffler too (he thinks it makes the
ped faster...i dont think so)

about 20?!?! thats almost the speed of a stock g23 my friend...... a hp g2d
has a ported cylinder hp carb and a smaller case compared to the g23....if
you're gonna tell me that it goes 20...thats just straight helarious..... i
have a stock hp g2d and it smokes the hell out of a stock sport.....

I have a stock g2d and it goes 20. I always smoke it on my modded g23.

A stock G2d is just the same as a stock G23 no matter what you buy for
the old style engine to make it faster you can make the g23 engine just
as fast by porting decking the cylidner advancing the timing big
spindle pipe hpcarb airfilter and shit like that...I think it is worth
the money though because you can just bolt everything on and it will
burn most G23's....

The HP g2d is the only g2d you can buy! They do not make 1.2 horse
g2ds any more.

there is one major diff between the g23 and the g2d, the cylinder head. the
old style has a straight plug and the new one has the angle plug. with the
straight plug you get a better more consistant fire that is centered up and
down in the chamber. look at all the cylinder conversions and they all have a
straight plug.

I understand what you are saying about the g2d, but, it doesn't seem
like there is that much of a speed increase over the g23. According to
everyones posts, you might gain 1-2 mph or nothing at all.
Just my observation, I don't know shit about motors. Unless you are
going to race then I think the g23 is fine for probably about 95% of the
riders.

Ped on, Aaron

Well consider this....

A stock ped, no matter what engine will go around 17-18 mph. A HP G2d is
NOT a stock g2d, it has and hp carb, and a ported cylinder. The main reason
why you buy one is for racing because it has a few more parts available to
it, as well as with the straigh plug, supposidly fires better.

Do not expect to buy an HP g2d and go like 25 beecause you wont

lol..... they dont sell stock g2d's...they sell high proformance g2d's and
for 300 bucks it is well worth it for the speed..
right out of the box you will be going 26-27 mph using a stock 625 spindle.and
no race pipe..just out of the box...for the people that dont want to deal with
doing engine work or paying someone to do it..it is well worth it..lots of
power..but the g23s and the g2ds both have thier own pros and cons

Thanks for answering my question JellyTrain. What do you got running on
ol' General Lee? G2d or g23? You totally smoked me in the Sac ride.

G23-LH with unifilter and .750 spindle on x-ped went 24mph. Unifilter
and .750 spidnle on x-ped with G2d HP went 32. Thats clocked, just my
experience. I weigh 170 lbs...

24 for a stock x-ped, i'm sorry, but you're misinformed. 22 stock is
more like it.

I think it a load of bull shit when people say that an x-ped goes 24
mph stock.....24 mph with just advanced timing ??? fuck that, if they
were like that i would buy one in a second.

ok,

a stock goped goes between 17 and 20 mph. the speed will vary due to
rider weight and the performance of the new engine. some new gopeds
are faster than others out of the factory due to compression ratios and
other other things of that nature. rider weight is one of the greatest
determinants in speed. i weigh about 135 and i can get my ped up to
about 33mph according to the cops. now, my lil bro got on my ped and
the cops claimed to get him at 37mph... i said that he was full of
shit, even tho he weighs only about 90. if yall were wondering, i have
a g23, ada race pipe, hp carb, lightened flywheel, ported head, k/n air
filter (which does not make your ped faster!!!), .800 spindle(formerly
an .875, i noticed no top end difference with the switch), 100 octane
vp race fuel (for cooler temp), and synthetic oil. the engine also has
extremely low compression which kills the bottom end and robs me of
power. i need new rings. anyway... the g2d does not make more power
than a g23. the so-called hp g2d's power can be copied on a g23 by
just the addition of a hp carb and a ported cylinder. the only
advantages of a g2d are that there are bad assed heads available for
them and the straight plug gives more consistant firing. and the x-ped
and its advanced timing offers a barely noticable power gain (bottom
end!!!)

Man, the people on here are rather quick to judge without even reading
the full post. My comment stated that It went 24 mph with a unifilter
and a .750 spindle, you can believe that or not, its my experience and
thats clocked with a police scanner. The speed of my G2d was ran
against a car, and was dead on 32. If you guys choose to be ignorant
and not accept the fact that every engine is different, every rider is
different, every oil is different, everything is different. You guys
are too quick to judge, the fact that whoever remarked cough bullshit
didnt even read my full post and just saw #'s is an example.

I disagree with part of your post. A G2D does make more power than a G23LH with
only an HP carb and a ported head. The G2D revs higher than the G23LH. Another
difference is the case is much smaller in a G2D than a G23LH. That is why you
can't buy and do not need a case stuffer for a G2D.

that is true. the g2d does rev higher, and that does give more speed.
however, the performance difference between a modded g2d and a modded
g23 is very minute. that was the only point that i was trying to
make. there is a difference, but not the big difference that everyone
claims.

That's true. I've seen both engines do well.
