New here - 06 SE tops out at 60MPH? WTF?

[RollinRhino]

my mustang goes a little faster than 75 :biggrin:

But how does she run in sand? :biggrin:

60 mph Seems a bit slow. You should def. see at least 65 or so. I ran 73.5 brand new on pavement..right after I broke her in bone stock on garmin gps. I hit 86 gps with my mods down below 15 tooth front sprocket. With the stock 14 tooth I topped at 81mph.

I miss riding fast. In 300ft on my 4 mil, I'll never see 80 mph :sad:, and the 14 mil is so dang inconsistent that I don't make near as many passes on it, though it does go 80+ mph.

yea i would check jetting or sprockets. they could be set for more tourqe like they all said. i got mine to 70 yesterday. driving by my friends on it and saw a cop speed box thing haha :biggrin: it wasnt to full throttle though. im afraid of hurting the engine. i also weigh 120

check your throttle cable and the two adjuster screws. My bud was running his honda without getting wide open for 2 years

uhh...well as a good rule of thumb dont run with your bike at wide open throttle for longer then 40-50 seconds or youll blow your top end pretty easy, 60 mph is enough to kill you as well.

 

 

to help you out read as many threads on this forum as you possibly can. then use the search function for questions. then youll look back at this post and think..."damn i sure was a no0b back then. what the hell was i thinking?"

 

For those of you wondering about this.... Yes holding you WOT will blow your engine. BUT NOT JUST FROM DOING IT FOR 50 SEC!!!.... Some of you probably remember when I was stationed in Italy and had plates on my shee. I rode to work and all over the Tuscan Vally. In my experience you have to be a moron or trying to blow it to blow it. I was a moron. I blew mine a couple times..... But I had a lot of fun.
