Maybe Kph

 

The only thing that will make a banshee go 125Mph is Craigslist :D

sure, its possible to go 125 mph on a banshee, but the gearing that you would need to pull it is huge. i dont think theres a 4mm motor out there thats going to pull that kind of gearing.

What would be the point? Other than running at the Bonniville Salt Flats.....what form of ATV racing cares about top speed? I don't think 125MPH will do any good on a Woods/MX/Trail course. 125MPH on the dunes will just get you killed. (for that matter, now that I think about it...so would going 125 in the Woods/MX track/Trails. LOL) :bolt: Riding that fast would almost require pavement. Ever see what pavement riding will do to a good set of knobby tires?

You gonna run special tires for the couple times you wanna' make high speed runs up and down the block? Who's going to watch? Who's going to care? You gonna do a brake upgrade to get you stopped when a car pulls out in front of you? If it takes a RADAR gun to impress your friends.....spend some money on some bling or learn to jump something big.

To answer the question...."Is it possible"? With a 4mill....I doubt it. "Is it beliveable"? NO! It's a guy who saw too many other guys claim 100MPH, so he up'd the lie. LOL.

I'll bet if you pull the jugs it's UN-PORTED with NOTHING you think was done to it. (just judging from his 125MPH comments)

I know someone that has a 4 mill stroker and its hitting 114 mph.

 

Yea in the back of one fast ass pick up truck. Where the hell do these people come up with this shit. What are they running car tires in the rear. Come on how tall would the tires have to be to pull that kinda MPH or what kinda crazy gearing are they running.

loco you dont even have a top speed number on your bike, ive asked u before. im running 14,39 gearing(i think) with 20inc tires and straight cut gears with a one tooth difference. i hit 108mph on a ashphalt straight away. my bike isnt setup for top speed(i use paul turners and maxxis tires). will i ever hit 108 anywhere other than my street? no? could i do it again and tape it? well wait till the snows gone and ill bust out the radar gun. btw once u hit 90mph your helmet begins to french kiss you, at 100mph you begin to tear up.

I'm gonna go with... no. With taller gearing on the basket, 14x39 gearing, 20" tires and PT pipes you're not going that fast. Just not physically possible. You don't have enough gearing, enough tire height, or enough rpm to get there. Plain and simple math.

 

I'm starting to think a lot of you guys are star trek fans and you think you have some sorta warp drive attached to your ass. :rotflmao:

a top speed number? no, i dont. i dont need one. i already know my bike will do 100mph and yours wont. mine would get to 75 before you were at 45. ive never even been in 6th gear with my 10mm cub. its just not possible for you to do 100mph with your gearing.
