My restricted curvy will get near to a ton (on a private runway of course!!) before it maxes out...

Re: 33bhp but slow ?
There is genuine suzuki carbs slides fitted to it , tick over is perfect but the acceleration is a bit slow well a lot slower than mine matter of fact !

Re: 33bhp but slow ?
Id get the plugs out and see if the mixture is obviously out.It could be the choke plungers sticking.Does it use a lot of fuel?
