The one atv I have never heard the top speed of is thhis one.What is its top speed?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

i've always heard around 70 mph. mine was about dead even with a stock banshee if that gives you any idea.

 

I have mild porting a pipe and a PWK 35 Airstryker, with a 13 tooth front sproket as oppossed to the stock 12 tooth, and I walk away from my friends 400EX, no rev limiter. He has one of the speed computers and it said he was doing 62. I know the 400's are suppossed to go faster than that but his is heavily modified, we raced for about a 1/2 mile paved road. so I would say mine was going upper 60's

 

For what it's worth....3&4 Wheel Action did a shootout at a paved 1/4 dragstrp in the June 1990 issue. Here are the stats:

Top Speed in mph
Quadzilla: 79.29
Banshee: 77.05
Tecate 4: 74.75
Fourtrax 250R: 71.89
250 Quadracer: 71.48
Mohave: 57.84

1/4 Time in seconds
Quadzilla: 15.09
Banshee: 15.33
Tecate 4: 15.81
250 Quadracer: 16.09
Fourtrax 250R: 16.42
Mojave: 19.07

 

how relevant is 1/4 mile times on machines that reach top speed in about 500 ft?

top speed of a machine depends on the means of accleration and total resistance to it...

throw a quadracer out of the back of an aircraft at 10000 ft and it will reach a maximim velocity in the range of 250-300 mph in only a few seconds.

strap that quadracer to a J.A.T.O. engine(jet assisted take off) and it'll reach a speed in the range of 600-700 MPH in only a split second.

put it in the cargo bay of the space shuttle and it will reach 17,000 mph while in orbit.

try these if you'd like, but i don't recommend any of them. severe damage to your quad may result.
