Default Top End???

I went riding today after getting the new ramp buttons in and setting my spring to 2-2. Was 1-1. I preloaded the spring the way you are supposed to. This is the first time I rode with this set up. Ran great out of the hole and thru the trails. Only I noticed getting down the tracks it seemed SLOW!!!!!!!! Toped out at 51 mph. Is this normal with this spring set up? I did not have my trail tech when I rode before the changes, so i'm not sure what my top speed was then. Thanks for the info![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I contacted BBS, and he gave me the #. I think it was 1664?!? But I'm not quite sure. It was after a rain storm so I know the puddles slowed me down, but is that all I can expect out of it? I was hoping to get at least get 60mph.
Is there anything else that could be holding me back? Maybe I should look into some sprockets. Is that possible on a 4X4?

I'll have to check that out. But are these bikes capable of 60+? I figured a 500 should do that out of the box, stock.
