Yep mine goes 82 mph and I'm proud, has anyone else gotten their 400's that fast, mine is pretty modded though. I love my new digital speedometer though, it's a 20 dollar Wal-Mart unit that works perfect, I couldn't be happier, beat a mod banshee and raptor today, god that felt good!! Anyway tell me ur speed and mods, when mine was stock it would do 66.

Which sprockets (front and rear) were you running when you did 82? And also, have you checked your speedo like by tailing a car or anything?

I have a friend that has an older sportsman with a 4 cylinder street bike engine that goes round 105 with the stock internal gears!

16/36 stock is 15/38, and I now have a 34 tooth rear, maybe 85???? I havn't checked yet. Yes I double checked my speedo with a Corvette with a digital speedo on a smooth staright road goin 55 for a mile, mine was within 1 mph of his!!!!It is very accurate. Oh and the FCR Carb, will that really help me, how much HP??? Thanks

What's that 20 bucks speedo?
How does it work? Will I find it here in Quebec? Is it water and mud resistent?
Do you have the name of the thing, or whatever? If I see it, I'll buy it!
Any info on this stuff appreciated (particularly on how it works.

iT IS INCREDIBLY ACCURATE!!! It is awsome, and for 20 bucks, a heck of a deal! It is made by Bell and is sold at Wal-Mart for 20 bucks. It features a speedometer, odometer, trip odometer, maximum speed, and average speed. It works great and can be used for KPH too for u Canada man. Its for bikes so i had to solder speaker wire(1 foot) to lenghen it, it is COMPLETELY water proof and mud proof and hold up to the weekly pressure wash!! It is covered in ice right now and still workin great, u mount the senspr on the caliper and glue a magnet on the rim, even from 5 months of ROUGH woods riding the wires or sensor havn't been harmed, it goes to 99 mph and so that is my goal!!!!
