So far I've hit 54.8 mph according to the GPS.  Looking forward to tweaking the set up and trying to erk out a few more clicks.

You are getting those speeds with a 40 hp?

BBgun - The 40 HP is just the cover.  The engine is a rebuilt and modded '88 50HP Yamaha.

It features the following:

Fresh-bore, new Wisco pistons, blended ports, new bearings & seals, Boyesen power reeds, clipped head (150psi), tuned exhaust, welded crank, (rev's well into the 6000's) reinforced bracket, a steering dampener, and new 70 hp carbs.

Estimated pushing out 65 hp when all is said and done.

Where did you find a steering dampner?  Make one?  I need one for my next motor.
