But the 700 had 7 tons of mud in the rad that could of slowed me down! It took me 2 hours to clean out! I find the 700 rad harder to clean out than the 650. It never overheated though! can not wait to get my new tires looking at my dirtdevils and they are pretty tired! I also ask John about the GPS because he was comparing it to the speed of his jet. His Jet was a tad higher than the GPS but it was close. BTW the top speed of 755kph on the GPS was really done in the big dig in Boston in his Jet because it lost the sats and when he came out the GPS went wonky.

I would be happy with a 750kit[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

The top speed shocked me I hoped to do 115-119kph

With just ex mod and intake mod speed was 103kph{64mph} on the same road

The 700 works very good and may of went faster with a taller tire

Reds650,
I'm curious...how accurate was the P650's speedometer as compared to GPS when you did those top-speed runs?

Happy trails...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I never beleive my GPS and I have a top of the line Garmin GPS V. For one the speed the ATV speedo or automobile speedo says and what the GPS says is usually always off by 4mph. Also my GPS and friends have said crazy stuff before like I have gone 140mph in my suburban while towing 2 ATV's LOL. The GPS connects to sattelites and if that transmission is broken even for a split second the time it is not receivin satellite info will make it see you travelled further than it calculated and says faster speed...
