95 mph in the back of my truck on interstate 35. that was the fastest I got it to go. Under its own power, 68mph bone stock on flat cement vs a car speedometer.

What's this whole facination with top speed anyways? I've had my 400EX for a week now and I haven't even had a chance to top out in third gear! The only time I could ever see getting to top speed is on a wide, flat, straight road, and that's not near as much fun as bustin through the trails! I don't care about top speed, as long as it's got power, that's all I need.

Cstark is Right
you might have lots of power
but if your a ***** how you gonna control that power.
Where someone else may have a less powerd machine
but might be a better rider and beat the person with the faster machine.
It all depends on the riders amount of experience and the speed at which they feel comfortable riding.

I agree. It doesn't matter what kind of four wheeler it matters how good you are. I beat a 400EX last week in the trails on a recon.

I agree with Motorhead I want to know where everybody rides that they can run 75mph I always thought the lowend was more important, I guess I've been wrong all this time.
