A friend of mine went up to the Kawasaki dealer and was asking about the V Force and the sales guy told him that with only pipes and a jet kit it would do 100 mph he also said that Kawasaki garentees these results. Now I just find that hard to belive and thought someone might beable to tell me what the real results of these mods would be.

Simply put, the Salesman LIED. What a SHOCK, a dishonest Salesperson, imagine that. What is the world coming too when you can't even trust a salesperson?. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Yeah I agree he lied but the v-force is capable of 100mp it'll take a lot more than pipes and jetting.

I love dealership stories.

When I visited the Yamaha shop here in Baton Rouge, the dealer told me that the Kawi V Force was an underachieving dog and that all of his Raptor owners were killing them by 8-10 quad lenghts in a 100 yard race!

Then I visited a Kawi shop and the dealer told me that the V Forces were obliterating the Raptors and Bomb's. Not even close according to him, V Force is so much faster that those other guys wont even want to race you....

Suzuki dealer told me the Z-400 was only a step behind the raptor and V Force in a drag race.....

Called the HOnda dealer on the phone to ask if Honda would be introducing a new quad. He told me that they didn't need to since the 400EX was the fastest quad available....

I finally found a Kawi dealer that shot straight. Told me the Kawi was fast but probably not the fastest on top end. Told me the Kawi was nimble, but not as nimble as the Z-400. I bought from that dealaer and paid $150 more on my V Force just because the dealer wasn't a liar.

ANY DEALERS OUT THERE READING THIS. STOP TREATING US LIKE WE ARE FOOLS!

I seriously doubt the V will do 100 without major mods to the transmission, but then again, what do I know?
