If your 150cc is a taotao, then where the number 60 is, is actually 55MPH GPS verified.
I got confused there too.
I took my bee-hach out on a ride tailgating a truck and got upto 65MPH, with the engine cutting out at 9,100 RPM (or something; false contact, or rev limited?)
Once away from the truck, my speed dropped back to 8k RPM, or 60MPH.
I may try to get heavier sliders again, to get that top speed at 7,5k RPM again, but those sliders usually don't last long. you either overgear the bike, so it can run well for a few months, or you gear the bike right, but as soon as the sliders/rollers wear out, it over revs again (usually in a few months of riding).
I'm actually thinking I should check up on my stock belt, before it breaks.
