Good for you Bob. I couldn't agree more. If it's speed you guys want, buy a sport machine. Too often we read about some knot head who wants to go fast on a utility machine. How fast is fast? There are even guys that buy what they consider to be the fastest utility machines on the market solely to beat the other utility machines on a flat straight-away. Get a life! As an owner of a '99 Suzuki Utility machine, I want torque, comfort and reliability. Fifty miles per hour is fine but I can't go that fast anyway. Certainly not through the woods, on the trail, up the hill, through the mud, rock hopin' around the corner, GPSing my way back to the parking lot...
It's comforting to look ahead at a mud hole and know that when you drop the tranny in 4X4, you only need to tap the gas...

Bobg I would have to see your 98 utility suzuki do 58. Maybe if yu droped it off a cliff. there is no way that a stock sizuk 98 utility 4x4 can do 58 on flat land. unless the new ( more advanced )go slower than the old.

 

Bobg the only way that your 98 could do 58mph and still have more to go is to drop it off of a cliff. Since my 01 goes about 53 on flat, it would be very hard for your stock utility 4x4 to go 58 on flat. Imposibble
