in second video mine sounds near like that just instead it ask for an upshift sooner and sounds more like having the engine in a 1st gear and at high throttle

Alley I am listening to your advice but because I have some other stuff to pay I need to be atleast 98percent sure its the clutch which I am considering on replaceing front sprocket and clutch plates and see what happens, buying some plates is not a problem in money however buying an impact wrench might be a little troublesome

Well something funny just happened when I was riding. I was riding like I always do and suddenly when in 2nd gear engine would jump to neutral on itself and from 3rd to 2nd I couldnt even jump to neutral because it woulnt hit neutral just 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 1st and neutral would jump off O.o!? bad clutch? bad oil? bad transmission? Or bad motorcycle all together?
I also have been trying to adjust my carb and cant get it right fuel screw is already 3 1/2 turns out and I still when reaching high rpms engine wants to die like if it was starving for fuel at high rpms and when I turn throttle back a little it smooths out I tried adjusting it but if I turn it out more it will pop out. I changed my air filter box when I first go it and added a cone like filter. Do I need a bigger jet? My carb is a stock PZ30 with handchoke I think its a Mikuni it says K F japan on its side

My redline starts at 8500 also I use my speedometer and my eyes to measure speed and when I'm riding in a 35mph zone cars seem to just pass me like if I was going so slow like really slow but engine is aleady at 5th gear and throttle wide open can catch up to a car. Should I make a video of me driving and show you what I mean?

So Slow acceleration means Slower take off speed and will take a while to reach max speed and faster acceleration will mean I will get less max speed but in exchange get faster take off and ability to reach top speed?
All I want is to be able to drive at 60-65 mph mainly becuse it's the primary and the only ride I have and I need to find a way to get it fixed properly because I can only drive in 35 mph streets otherwise I will run the engine at redline just to be able to drive around.
I mainly would Love to make it good enough to drive on I-10 for a few minutes, currently I have to spend lots on gas because I need to drive around the Interstate to evade those 65 mph speeds and I also need to be careful because the only way of cooling the engine is air flow mainly because this motorcycle does not have an oil cooler or any kind of cooling system

well steve My rtc has a 428H chain with 100 links also luckily I removed the rear fender so fender clearance isn't much of a problem mine has 17t on front and 46t on rear if you could remember that place where you bought your sprocket I will forever be grateful because finding a 6 bolt sprocket to fit is very frustrating. It appears Google is not my friend anymore :/

In my opinion I think I'm just not ready for chinese motorcycle just yet because I am not sure who is right or wrong
I have been riding for 2 years this motorcycle and problem just started to bother me because I can not ride on highway because 1. I can't reach 60 at all not even 55mph 2. I Have to run the engine at max revs and full throttle just to get near 35mph 3. My headlights don't work 4. Maybe 1st owner just didn't care for it and dropped it so much that it now has a heavy rattle 5, Bolts come loose because having engine at max revs vibrates em loose and might become dangerous to drive as I nearly lost my oil drain screw while I was riding due to vibration

When I do that my revvs are nearly maxed and my speed takes a while to even pickup and I I also get a very slow start from a stop and I even have to get throttle wide open when to be able to move from 1st gear otherwise the bike stalls.
Rear sprocket is a 46t and front is a 17t

So replacing my clutch plates with new ones might fix my problem? I will start replacing them ASAP also first owner always used engine braking by downshifting gears on high revs to brake, maybe that cause the plates to wear out to quickly?
