150 mile camping trip on my SMax. With 70 Lbs of camping gear ,in top case ,saddle bags,underseat & on the seat. The SMax did fantastic with extra weight the crosswinds weren't bad. Drove at 60- 68 mph could of gone faster but I like the speed I drove at. $4.00 worth of gas. This is a True Wonder Scooter. At speeds under 70mph I don't see a need for anything bigger. (I love this SMAX!)

I didn't ride beyond 65 mph when I had a motorcycle. If one of these 200cc GY6s (169cc actually would do a sustained 60 mph without exploding I would probably be set. Time will tell.

I was sustaining 65-70 mph for 30 miles before slowing down for the next town.
I was not on any interstate. Roads I drive on are 55- 70 mph roads. Just right speed for two wheel travel.

Yup, off the freeway and moderate speeds are best for actually experiencing the trip. Congrats on the first of many...
