97 mph with 14 42 gearing with a mustang behind me telling me my speed

 

Shav0:

I usually switch between 14/38 and 14/36
I'm thinking a 37 would be the best for all around with my mods but I am not sure if they make those.

Right now I have ESR full exhaust, G3 power curve reeds with 12mm torque spacer, k&n filter, .020 over with a forged piston
and also a CR head gasket for a little more compression.

I'm still playing with my gearing a little bit since I always switch between riding on blacktop , dirt and open fields with trails.
I made the mistake of running 13/39 gearing with all my mods once just because I wanted to see the difference in low end.
Well, I forgot to change my sprockets back and decided to take a ride down the highway a bit. I revved it up a few thousand rpm or so
and jumped the clutch. The front end came flying up in 1st thru 4th like a rocket and when I got up to about 6th I could hear
my chain bounce a little bit. I pulled over and there were 4 teeth busted completely off my front sprocket.
Will never make that mistake again! :-)

 

It is very possible. The crackenstein banshee's you see videos of all over the place go 80+ mph up steep sand hills in distances way way shorter
than 1/4 mile. On blacktop, I'd recon that viper would look pretty sad. Besides, viper's have very very poor low end power.

 

68mph 13/40 gearing (takes forever)
63mph 12/40 gearing (bit quicker)
65mph 12/42 gearing (thinking this one may be bogus as I suffered a defunct cable shortly after attaining this speed)

Now have 15/40 gearing installed for a long trail ride coming up in the next couple of weeks. If I get a chance I'll do a speed test with that, but I suspect it will be 68mph or less .. 15/40 is pretty tall gearing for the Warrior, even after I get the carb re-jetted and tuned in ..

 

xr650warrior was it hard putting the 650 on your warrior? and how must did it cost you?

 

I hit 140 on the bike today. I don't know what the Raptor will do now.

 

My DS can do 78.5 mph on GPS with my mods (minor) and stock gearing.

 

My RZ350 Will do roughly 120mph, and that was fast enough for me and i let off haha
WOw scary fast

 

I did 86 on my raptor a couple years ago with a 15t front sproket and a pipe/filter. I haven't run it since I built the 686 and I am running a 16t now. The Gear Ratio Calculator says it should do 96.

 

pimp250r.... did those G3 reeds make the world of difference that that guy said they would?
