I don't think ATV tires are designed for goin 75 mph. Imagine what would happen if the tread came off goin that fast.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

A 1000cc "quad" is not a qaud in minnesota...the largest an engine can be to be legally considerd a atv is under 800...so then they ohv protesters will have somethin complain about

They will be at 1000cc within 2 years, write it down or I'll say "I told you so"

Remember when 400 was huge? 800 comes out next year. Only 200 more guys n gals.

I had my raptor with a 15 tooth front sproket and in my field my dad was in his truck and we were going about 83 mph is what he said and when you get going that fast it really doesnt seem like it

They only let quads go 75?? What about bikes? Those top out at more than that, just though I would stir the pot a little.

My Quad is Stock and it does 77 GPS and my buddys Stock Banshee does like 78GPS but then he put a 15 Tooth Front Sprocket on it and now his does 84 GPS. I Tried putting a 14 Tooth Front Sprocket on my Quad and it don't have enough power to pull the higher gearing. I dont know how the banshee does and the raptor doesnt.
