Put a gas engine in the frame.
Or you can put propane injection on it and make it move.

These things are slow because they are naturally aspirated. It would be like trying to hop up a Geo Metro. If you had a box full of money you could do it. These things worn't designed to go fast. They were designed to burn a common fuel.
Is this thing new? They have not made them in years.

it would be a big modding project and you'd have to know your mechanics, but if you bought a small turbo charger and mounted it, you could get some serious gains

I'm waiting for polaris to come out with another diesel ATV, just a twin with a turbo. I'd love to have a 700CC or so turbo charged diesel Sportsman. I'd turn that sucker up and blow some smoke with it! (yes, I'm a diesel fanatic, I've got TWO Dodge Ram Cummins diesels).
