actually its 78mph legally but there seems to be a rounded number of 75 just for safety legal stuff. also on the new ds650 ad. they say its the fastest quad on the market. is this an ad scam thingy or does it maybe actually have the most top end out of any quad?man big nig your funny!

 

hey babyn its not how it goes it how it handles when your doing mach 1.

Coyote chaser: I won it at a quad rally. out of 700 people. Yep the odds were in my favour that day. This year I went to the same rally and won nothing. I guess you cant win evry day. Just look at the Calgary Flames. You win some you lose some...

check my photos to see the kody as I call it.

 

140 mph... if you drop it out of a transport plane!

 

Hey great to see another alberta rider on here

 

Here's something else that bugs me in DW.

The shootout with the Rincon shows a Rincon with after market skids on it. The picture in the top right side of page 52. It states that the Honda had the best protection with it's Baja plates. THE PLATES AREN'T STOCK. Isn't the shootout about 6 stock machines?

If someone doesn't know any better, they'll walk into a dealership thinking that the Rincon should come with the skids.

 

The worst mistake I have seen was an ad for paddle tires or a story on paddle tires and the had a couple sets mounted BACKWARDS! That would be great traction for racing in reverse!

LMAO! id pay to see someone race in the dunes like that!

 

I highly doubt a raptor could do that if it was stock. Gearing calculators are good, but they are logical. The real world isn't. There are
too many other factors that influence those factors like weight and wind resistence and so on. Of the gearing calculators I've seen,
going one up on your front sprocket "logically" should add 4-5 mph or so. But in the real world, it's about 2 or 3. Plus, I extremely don't
believe a raptor with that high of gearing could pull the kind of rpm's without being modified to do so.

Quick! Everyone! stop buying dirt wheels magazines so they go out of business already

 

hay kodiak owner where do you live in alberta? im in st. paul. its about two hours from cold lake and edmonton. one hour from vegriville.

 

i think that somebody should try it put a 50 tooth front sprocket and like a 10 in the back and just go down a 10 mile flat road and see how fast it actually goes.
