Default 700Grizz, should i worry

my 700 grizz, stock accept POD of 35, and 26" XTR's, will only reach 58mph completly maxed out, actually after 46mph it is weak to get to the 58. i have done all kinds of searching and people get at least 62mph stock or not all the way up to 68mph, im worried my grizz is a little slow or somethings wrong. it has 17hrs on it and 173 miles. should i be worried?

Our Grizzly 700 with 27" XTRs max's out at 58 mph as well. Our other Grizzly, with its 25" stock tires maxed out at 68 mph.

We have two with about a thousand miles on them. I did hit 62 mph on one of them and probably could have gone a little faster. The thing I noticed on both of them is the odometer is off. I took along a gps I use for biking and the ATV shows about a mile extra logged for every 50 miles.
