Default Yamaha wolverine Speed limiter screw.

Last time I tried topping out my wolverine it stopped at about 50 on 2 inches of snow. I know it seems slow but I herd there is a speed limiter screw. Is that the thing that is making my quad go slow? I even got some mods on it so id think I can hit atleast 55-60

I don't know about the wolverine but I know on a raptor in the throttle box on the handles there is a screw. If this is the same(which I imagine it is) Open that up, and see if the screw actaully effects the ammount that you can push the throttle... When I checked mine the screw was nowhere near stopping it and the throttle just stopped on its own cause it ran out of cable slack...


MIke.

When I look at the handlebars I see a screw on top on the right of my handle bars. Is that the screw?

Thats the limiter screw, if its out 20mm your fine, thats just in case a kid jumps on the bike and you want him to only do 20, etc. IT just limits the throttle opening more then anything, usually from the factory is all the way out. Don't expect to be doing more the 50ish on that bike, mods don't make a bike faster only gearing does.

Big Baller - Whats up with the winch?? I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume you are an average weight person, that with you mods, you should be doing about 57mph also assuming 23" tires.

I dont know though, the winch may slow you down because it will make the wolverine think that it should run like a big bear, this may slow you down about 1000rpm on the top end.
