Default Rubicon Top Speed

Just curious what kind of top speeds you guys are getting out of your Rubicon. Mine bottoms out right at 50mph. I am wondering if this is average to others. Thanks guys!!!

I have a 2005 with about 60 miles on it so I have not run it too hard yet but a couple weeks ago I got up to 53 MPH on it and I am over 300 lbs

I've hit 96 kmh quite a few times on flat pavement...which is 59.5mph. I have even hit 98kmh once. That is with my stock tires and the machine is still stock as well. Mine is a CTE which I beleive is similar to the 06 Rubicon's in the States. They are slightly different in that the carb is a little bigger, and the tranny is electronically mapped a little different.

I have an 2004 Rubi and on black top I got 57 MPH but on Gravel its 54-55 mph........I would think you should get more speed than 50.
