If you look at the throttle assembly at the engine end not the handlebars you will see that there is a metal rod that goes back to an arm that is connected to a shaft that goes into the engine. That is the governor. Connect the throttle cable directly to that arm that is connected to the small shaft that runs into the engine. By doing this you overcome the governor and you get 5000 rpm instead of 3600. The increase in RPM means an increase in speed. There are other ways to disable or completely remove the governor, but this is the easiest way. I have a 6.5hp Honda clone engine with the governor removed completely. With the governor arm removed and a slightly smaller rear sprocket I manage 60mph. You should be able to get 40+ with the governor removed or disabled and you will have much better acceleration. If you want to remove the governor on a 6.5hp clone or preparing a box stock engine. Although these are 6.5hp engines instead of 3hp the way the governor works and disabling it or removing it work in exactly the same way.
