I fellow member on another site says his YFZ450 goes 98MPH
Just want some others to help me out as of how fast it goes.
Mods that he has said
It was clocked at a drag strip near where I live.
Oh about the cams I had crower gen1's and webcams 187/2.5 grind . The webs where in it at the time when it was clocked . The webs are topend cams but then I put the gen1's in for mx.
Nope 98mph thats with 18in tires and 1 tooth up on front sprocket so that would be close to the stock gearing and 20in tires.
Yes I could have left it stock gearing with the 18in tires and it would have a lower top speed but I tried that and it was way overkill on takeoff .It would break the tires loose in 5th gear and spin them like crazy .
I had $14,000 in this yfz was around 60hp and less than 350lbs = FAST.
What I mean by mx it had 18in tires, -6 flwwheel, dyna curve for mx, mx pipe , low, midrange cams you know stuff for mx.
In another words everything on it was for mx and not for drag racing in the dunes. My point is they can be fast quads even if there setup for mx.
There is a poll!
