Top speed on Arctic Cat 650 v2
I did the springs today and all I have got to say is there is NO difference between the Kawi and A/C clutch systems. Th new springs did feel pretty good on the short ride I took. While I was in there I put a Brute belt in and removed the smaller shim. When in gear and not moving I have a low squeel( not loud). So I know the belt is tight. Cant wait to see how it works this weekend in the mud.

What is the advantage of the Brute Force belt? I am at 97 hours and will be taking it in for inspection next week. My tranny feels great, although it could probably lose a small shim to tighten it up. There is very slight slippage from a standing start in high range. Other than that, I'm expecting the belt to be in pretty good shape.

I have not road it for long yet. I plan on going Sunday and I will let you know. From what everyone on arctichat is saying, the brute belt is made with a different kind of material that holds up better. Everyone on that site really knows alot and seem to be running it for a reason. I had it left over from the prairie 700 and decided to give it a try when I put the clutch springs in. I will tell you this though, when I held them side by side the brute belt seemed to be a little shorter in diameter, maybe cause it hasn't been on the atv yet. Who Knows?

Well I have seen 65 on mine however I am also running larger tires and a clutch kit. I raced a new King Quad the other day on a dirt air field. The King Quad kicked my butt both off the line and top end. It also had larger tires but no clutch kit. That and a few other factors made me think twice about my most recent purchase. Mainly because after riding the King quad for a while it had better thottle response and seems to handle a tad bit easier.
Dont get me wrong I love my 05 650 V2 Cat and have no plans of changing, but if I sold my 500 Vinson I would have to say I know what I would be looking at next.
Take care

ive hit 66 on my bone stock 04 650. i think it will run more too, felt it had a little still left in it plus im 240 pounds so if mayb a 150 rider would get on it i think 70 is def possible, i have a pic of the spedometer at 63 cause it started feeling a bit uncomfortable only holding on w/one hand and my 500 dollar camera in the other at that speed.
