700 owners; what is your GPS saying on top speed on your bike? Is this the biggest, baddest bike on the market or what? Tell the truth without all the hype.....

Pretty sure it will be geared to 75mph and not any higher....like every other comes stock, not to say it couldnt pull 80+mph but i dont think it will be geared that high.

Although everyone is saying so, I just find it hard to believe that a stock 700R can be faster than a piped/jetted 660. I could just as well be wrong and if I am that's one badass stock quad. I'll find out when I get my clone of the 05 I had.....................coming soon! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

its bored out to a 686 w/ efi and higher comp. piston, i wouldnt doubt that it would be most piped/jetted 660r's. but i would like to see how different pipes on the 660's do against a 700.

To beat a 700R with a 660, the 660 will need to be piped,jetted, and have an airbox mod, and a good rider. That may still not even be enough unless the kid on the 700 is a moron. You may need to dig into the motor.
