i have gotten mine well over 50 i was on pavement but i weigh 160 and i had a passenger and m ine is completely stock

 

lmao 55 mph?? try like tops 50

 

I was thinking the same. I just don't want to say it. With the mods that my wife has and she is a whole 105 lbs she can hit about 47 maybe a little more on a perfect day... just me though I guess. Maybe the 04's are slower...

 

They are really overestimated when it comes to top speed, the accell i guess is ok but it just doesn't do anything top speed

 

it all depends on how ur quad is running and if u wore it in right and all tha jazz.......some stock will do 55 and some will only do 47....but there not all gonna do the same speed..

 

I had a guy once tryin to tell me his stock z250 was doing 60 and had plently left. LMFAO > I told him the top speed was 54 and he got so thick, some guys are full of bs.

 

My Ozark(same motor as the Z250, just a differant carb and pipe) has gone a GPS certified 47.8 mph. But, my Ozark isn't running right(it needs to have the carb tweeked with the current mods). At those speeds, the motor is cutting in and out like the spark is getting blown out, but I've got my plug gapped down to 0.024 so I dunno. I suppose if a Z250 was running perfectly and if you had a filter, jet kit, and a pipe on it then it might get up to 55 as long as the two quads have the same gearing.

 

I don't think that the gearing would make a difference with it being shaft drive would it? Sorry this might be a stupid question...

 

I don't think it goes much over 50 in stock form, and sadly there are not many preformance minded aftermarket parts to make it much faster.

 

I have also clocked a stock 250 @ 55 mph on flat open road.
