Sacrificing torque for speed is great in level areas but for long hill climbs you'll end up down shifting and slower than you were with the smaller gear.
15t to 17t on a 125 pit bike basically stays the same. Mine felt similar in torque and gearing was longer. I would only suggest to go 15 to 17t and nothing more on front or back sprocket unless u just want speed.
Oh the irony of making how to videos when you dont really know. You installed the wrong size sprocket. You have 428 chains, and managed to order and install a 420 front sprocket. You are asking for trouble, that chain will slip sooner or later specially under heavy load or top speed.
I was trying to buy a 18 T rear sprocket from a 38. The top speed was meant to go from 42 to 100mph. Sadly the sprocket didn’t fit my drum break wheel.. it’s annoying they don’t make alterations in the sprockets, I can only find 37+ Teeth ones for my bike. Hoping to change the front.

You look like a bigger kid than average and you didnt really put your head down and get aero whenever you opened it up on these tests.... air resistance is exponential as you increase to much higher speed so it takes alot more power to go from 55-60 mph than it does from 50-55 mph for example, and so on as you keep reaching even higher speeds, .... i bet if you keep your knees pressed to the gas tank and your arms in and head down so your eyes can look just enough to see over the bars and i bet you will top 60 mph easy there now with that 17t cog ... with almost any bike i ride on the highway i gain about 3-5 mph by just tucking down and i do not even move the throttle... and i generally use my chest as air brakes to help me slow down when i sit up too.. but Yes if you had sat the same way doing the 15t and 17t runs then that was good way just to compare the exact differences in your bikes performance during the tests...
No do not get a $30 carb get the NIBBI carburetor 26mm. I got one for my DBX1 and it is the biggest performance mod you can do. It basically is a racing carb and the build quality is night and day and the throttle response is insane. It does cost a little over $100 bucs but it is worth it. No one who has bought these carburetors has complained they are legit for performance gain. In first gear if you give 1/4 to a 3rd of throttle the front tire will lift off the ground. I like this mod as well however I thought you should have held the throttle open longer and you could have squeezed out 2 more MPH's.
