Top is current MPH,2nd is elevation, 3rd is moving time and bottom is top speed.
Stock motor I am not sure on the sproket teeth, the rear wheels are 22" I believe.

is that hitting the rev limiter in fifth gear, if so you must really have it geared down low. still thats preety fast.

That quad is stock gearing with either 18" or 19" rear tires.... geared lower than stock, that speed still seems a tad slow, but probably right being you weigh a little more than me too.

Its was on loose stone too not pavement or hard dirt:devil:
What is wrong with the bars?
It was pinging the Rev limiter when a hit a bump.
I feel that it goes through the gears a little to quickly I would let to get some more top speed out of it, acceleration is not my concern right now.
that seems a little slow even geared 1 tooth down or something. My stock 400ex can hit that without being on the rev limiter. what kind of bars are those?

They're Renthals, they need a barpad before you wreck your face, also just suggested a "cleaning up" of the bars, to make it look a little more neat thats all.
I want to try your GPS on my quad, maybe this weekend? Run yours down the road and see what it runs... it will probably pick up a few more miles an hour, which sounds right for smaller rear tires.

They're bent renthals:blah: put a little bend in the left side this weekend hitting some massive jumps:macho. I might be able to get down in the pits this week and see if I can squezze out a top speed run on pavement. We can throw the GPS setup on your quad this weekend if you want will only take a few seconds to switch over.
