I figur a good runing properly jetted blaster will probably go 57-58 MPH. After I jetted my Shee it went 74 MPH then with T5s and Pro Flow air filter and no air box lid it went 82 MPH with stock tires and stock gearing..

My 86 LT250 with 12/42 gears and 20 inch tires will do 60.5mph confirmed on GPS and my friends Blaster is nowhere near me. He has a Bills pipe but otherwise all stock and weighs around 190-200lbs. He claims over 60mph but if that were the case then he would eventually catch back up to me in a long race and that doesn’t happen.

What happens if you dont break in a blaster when you first get it? you get on it a go right to 5th gear and ride it like a normal fourwheeler that's already been broken in. what will "not breaking it in first" do to it?

will lose power and reliability. Could just blow ur head gasket. It can do a lot of things, basically if you dont break it in right, then plan on rebuilding. Breaking it in right is essential to having a good running quad,

my cusin had his dad use his radar gun and check his speed and he got up to i think 59 mph and after that i raced him and i blew him away. I took off my front fenders got rid of the tors and took off the head light and i noticed a difference in speed so i think i was doing about 65 i think. so they go fast for a short quad.

I took my new blaster to the trails today to break it in, and this thing is very fast for its size. but i wont pass fourth yet because it isnt fully broken in yet, but i swear this thing will do 40+ in 4th, atleast it felt like it.
well anyways, this thing is totally awesome and a true "Blast'' to ride[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]. (Cant wait till its broken in,i want to burn those 300ex's)

My 10-year old says his will go 50. Sounds about right-its pretty slow.

Do you really think anyone is going to trust the word of a 10 year old? lmao. i wouldnt, and a stock blaster is faster than just 50.
my polaris Xpress 400 will hold around 60-65, and my blaster isnt much slower than it.
