anyone else have the digital speedometer. mine says my raptor will due 68 top speed. In one magazine they claimed 3 mph with cut fenders , I have not gotten even a 1 mph gain.

When my 2001 Raptor was stock, I hit 73.6 with the trailtech. I am 5'11" and weigh 198. When I went to a 12 tooth sprocket, I hit 69.8 mph. After I installed a 14 tooth on front, I hit 80.3. Now that I have the WB E-series silencer, TMM race cam, a 11:1 Hi-comp piston, port/polish, adv. timing, and flywheel modification, I got a top speed of 78.5 with the 12 tooth, and 86.3 with the 14 tooth sprocket. I averaged the time after 3 runs, and there was a fair amount of wind. I only used the trailtech, and I believe that the accuracy is +/- 1.5 mph. This quad would fly with a 150 lb. rider, but I have not seen 150 in many, many years.

In the new edition of 4-wheel ATV Action they clocked a stock raptor on a dry lake bed at 76.9mph the banshee at 77.7, ds650 at 76.1mph, cannondale cannible at 75.1, and the 400EX at 66.8.

Wondering if you could give the number that you used to program the trailtech for the stock tires. Just wondering because I am not sure if mine is accurate.
Thanks Rudy
