So I've been heavily curious about this for a while... for most of the US, 50cc and under are considered Legal without having to get your bike registered, insurance, and so on, and Because of this I chose a 49cc engine, so why are the 66/80cc engines so widely used instead of the 49cc?
On top of that, there are a LOT MORE 66/80cc parts, accessories, and modifications on EVERY website that sells gasbike kits/parts.
I've been watching some Bikeberry videos on youtube to get an idea of what parts I want to get for my gasbike, and they ONLY test on the 66/80cc engines. Usually claiming that everything, including the engine, is brand new.
From my experience, on flat land with little to no wind, my little 49cc will consistently move about 25mph full throttle, but the gentleman in the Bikeberry videos with his seemingly infinite supply of 66/80cc engines seems to be moving closer to around 30mph full throttle.
Is there really that much difference between the two engine sizes?
I put together a patreon (because my job doesn't pay me enough) and will upload my findings there first, and on youtube about a week or two later.
