i am buying a radar gun. I own a 89' lt500r, with bills pipe and silencer, vforce reed valve, 20 inch tires with stock gearing.
What speed should should I be reaching?

How fast will stock bore lt500r's go??

any tricks on power and speed for this bike?

thanks guys

 

stock I think they hit around 80 - 81mph ..

 

what about one piped, with carbon fiber reed valves

 

Just wonderin did you ever do it? Would be guessin mid to high 80's on stock gearing.

 

dude that thing has got to be good for 300 plus. jk yea i would say 78-80

 

oops, for some reason i thought I read it was ported, but i would say low- mid 80's then.

 

The new ATV Sport mag has a Duncan LT500 that will hit 100...
I think they mentioned 80 in the article for a stock machine.

 

Wouldn surprise me, it would be well able to haul the gearing.
