Yup,
It's true.
One of my customers has an 88 Zilla w/the original motor, never even had the head clutch or stator cover off....all original and 19 years old.
Bike was run in REAL WORLD conditions w/my pipe and tuning on gasoline w/20" knobbies on dirt w/a sprocket change and new reeds after the OE broke on a 99MPH run.
Have GPS data and pics to back it up.
Whacha think?
Anyone wanna call B.S.?
"Google" LT250 LT500 HQ to find out more on the story.
(Oh, I had to edit the title as it went 103 later this morning.....and still runs)

With a gearing change, my 250R could go that fast, heck,even my LT80's could.
It's rpm's x gearing x tire size.
Yes the Zilla is fast.
Now tell me you did this in 300ft and I'll be mighty impressed. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Ha!
Yeh, right.........
Show me a bone stock 18 year old 250R w/just a pipe and reeds go 103 on gas in the dirt w/knobbies and I'll buy a Honda instead of roosting them.....
Now the LT80............. it has a chance........... cuz it's a Suzuki..
LMAO.

While 103 is impressive, if you want to impress me, go 103 and make a 90 degree right turn.

 

rk the lt250r is a suzuki, just thought you should know. a 250r is a honda.
