It's all about the gearing, homes. But I'll go out on a limb and say 85ish, 90 if you are light.

While it sounds like your LT is fast, and it will beat some 450's, it won't beat them all. Still, sounds like you have a pretty sweet Q'racer.

Don't ask us, get out there and race some 450s and let us know what happens!

No way, bench racing is sooo much better. I can't remember the last bench race I lost, lol.

if you need to know how fast your going get yourself a hand held GPS and find a long flat smooth area to ride and clock yourself
I think its the best way to really see how fast you are going. a dyno only tells top speed without any wind or rider
and with what you have done to the bike you should have no problem with the 450"s. IMO
