how fast to warriors top out at how much HP do they make

 

~67mph and about 17HP at the wheels.

 

Dang! just 17??

 

at the wheels yes, should be about 20-22 at the crank.

 

You are kidding right? more like 60/61mph.

 

My buddy has a warrior, the only way it would do 67 is if you throw it out of the truck. Stock warrior will not do 67 mph. Maybe piped warrior will.

 

probably around 63mph they are pretty fast.

 

Using the HP forula .. at 6000 rpm the Warrior makes 20.3lbs-ft torque .. so ...


20.3x6000/5252 = 23HP at the crank. As far as I understand, at the rear wheels it's making 18hp, which is inline with normal driveline efficiencies.

Usual quoted top speed for a stock warrior is 61-63mph. Some claim to get 67-68 .. I honesly can't see it myself. Mine, with stock gearing and just the pipe .. no other mods could just get to 110km/h (a little over 68mph). Aquaintances of mine have quoted going as fast as 134km/h (83mph) with pipe/filter/jet, yeah .. uh huh .. as if.

With my reduced gearing of 12/40 I could consistently hit 63mph in realitively short spans. Not sure what it will be with my new reduced gearing since I've only gone 5km since making the change, and that was in slushy snow ...blech.
