    Re: Shineray XY200I

    Comfort wise about 45, with a little extra to maybe hit 55.
    at 55 there is no get out of the way room, it's maxed.

    If I can get 55-60 comfortably, i'd be happy.

    I'll check the link. thanks

    Re: Vibrating noise from the exhaust

    try a hose clamp at the joint. it should tighten down the vibrations, and seal it better

    unfortunately it has a dead battery,
    good thing is that it's the only thing wrong with the bike.
