What is the maximum speed of Xiaodao after removing the 25 km/h speed limit?

After removing the 25 km/h speed limit, Xiaodao can reach 28-30 kilometers per hour. Here are some precautions for motorcycle riding: Running-in period: During the running-in period, the engine speed should not exceed 50% of the maximum power speed, and the maximum speed should not exceed 75% of it. After the running-in period: The maximum driving speed should not exceed 75% of the maximum power speed, as this may cause unnecessary malfunctions during riding. Gear usage: Taking a common 125CC motorcycle as an example. First gear is only used for low-speed starting or climbing very steep slopes. Shift to second gear immediately after starting. Second gear is generally suitable for speeds between 10-20 km/h, third gear for 20-40 km/h, fourth gear for 30-50 km/h. Usually, fifth gear can be used for speeds above 40 km/h.
I modified the same model scooter last year. After removing the factory 25km/h speed limit, it actually reached around 38km/h in tests. However, this speed significantly increases wear on lead-acid batteries - at full throttle, the range dropped directly from 80km to just over 50km. If you really want to remove the speed limit, I'd recommend switching to a lithium battery pack. The controller also needs recalibration, otherwise you'll experience acceleration hesitation issues. Honestly, stability noticeably decreases beyond 30km/h - it's particularly prone to skidding when cornering in rainy weather. I've since adjusted mine back to 28km/h. Safety comes first, right?
