The video explores modifications to a minibike to increase its speed. Initially, the minibike achieved 44.61 mph by changing the rear sprocket. The video then discusses the potential impact of advancing the timing with a 7-degree key in the flywheel. After installing the advanced key, speed tests show a slight increase to 44.80 mph, with improved throttle responsiveness. The modification is deemed worthwhile for its cost, enhancing both speed and low-end torque.
