It will go 70, but it takes a bit to get there. I've got mine by the speedo to 69, but it's about 5mph faster then my sp800 speedo, so I don't know how acurate it is.

yeah, i used to have a 98 Grizzly 600 with a WB Eseries, jet kit, and k&n filter. the speedo was clocked for 70 and i had it buried, and for a utility it got there pretty quick.

this seems like its pretty high speeds for utilities to me tho... i always thought utilities usually maxed out at maybe 55 mph.. mines a p.o.s. tho.. lucky to get 50 or 45, im not really sure on how accurate this is tho cuz im canadian therefore i use kph instead but i converted it in the past so i have an idea..

I got a qeastion. We use to have a Sportsman 500 and the speedometer says it would do 60 flat. And then my dad bought a SP700 twin and that says it goes 66 +. And then he bought me a LT-Z400 when he sold the 500 and I blow past his 700 like no tommorow when I was stock. But everybody on here says mine does high 60's? I think it has to go faster then 70. Maybe altitudes have an effect on top speeds? I have hard form numerous people in my area that my Z will do around 73. I live in Maine.

I have some buddies that had their Grizzlys up to 69 mph. I only ever had mine up to 58 but had to slow back down because I was running out of straight trail and coming up on a sharp curve.
