What's your top speed?

[Joe-405]

id love to see you take it there

I don’t know if I’ll make it yet or not. But I’m trying to do the roll racing and drag racing for street car takeover first weekend of November.

It will run 130+ 1/4 mile from a roll I bet.

You all will probably laugh but I've done 25mph on a 2014 Baja Warrior with stock Predator 212 non hemi and stock gearing (10t clutch, 2:1 reduction jackshaft and 50t sprocket). However I have been at 60+ on a 1995 Yamaha Warrior 350 and at least 70 on a 2004 Yamaha Raptor 660R.

Cars' speedometers are set fast. If your car shows 52mph, then you are probably doing 50 mph. GPS speedos are probably more accurate than your car's speedo.

Plus I don't believe what I can't see. (Oh me of little faith.) The video shows 44mph. So top speed is 44 as far as I'm concerned.

My bank statement shows $23 in my account, but I have a confirmed $457,754 in there.

Check again....thanks for the PIN.

BTW: Poboy fund is doing well.

45 on a manco 445 with a 6hp subi and 29 on a 485 with 11's and a 5hp briggs, both pavement. The dingo hasn't been put back together or even ran since I had it.

 

[FieldstoneDriveKarts]

50+ mph in my Emmick race kart on my street. Would get more speed if the street was longer.

 

[Flyinhillbilly]

52mph on a doodlebug on flat pavement.
To those calculating the gear ration and tire size, remember that tires can “grow” at high speed.

 

[Makin' it work...]

On my yerf dog I've hit 38 on rough concrete with a Tecumseh 6.5 power sport. Just swapped out for a 212 predator but I haven't had the chance to see how fast I can get it, although it seems a bit faster and a better take off.

 

[leesiel]

40 mph on yardcart....duromax 7hp with stage 1 mods
5:1 gear ratio on pavement, 37mph in dirt (smooth , slight downhill ) on 11" tires.

 

[c-gar]

49.5 mph by gps with stock gearing with rpm to go, i.e. sub 5000 rpm. After I went to the 12 tooth clutch I maxed at ~6300rpm and 43.2 mph. Yep, "point two".
It felt stable enough for me. Setting caster and toe are good things.

 

[LeeHene]

I hit 40mph (GPS) in one of two Trailmaster 110xrx karts that I recently purchased off Craigslist.

The previous owner said the engine was replaced under warranty shortly after they bought it. Shifting is reverse of the stock unit and it has a good bit more power. This little thing is a blast!

 

[Scout]

Iirc about 35 in my kart, modded 212 with 7:1 ratio. Got a friend who hit the 40s with i think a stock 212 and 5:1ratio.

 

[karte_m0lim]

50 km/h with stock honda gx
140 with TC

97 km/h with 2stroke honda nsr125 engine..

Karts with fxr180 and mz 250 engines never manage to record top speed as I blow up both ..

 

[numscul]

I got my mini bike up to about 80 on the freeway before i rebuilt the whole thing
i need to give it another freeway test again

 

[mindymogul]

In a factory built cart about 38-40mph on a Manco Magnum. Had a GX390 w/ 22" mud claws. Sketchiest thing ever if it went over 5mph. Home built was 72mph but that had a Honda 450r on it. The $2.99 masterpro bearings weren't happy about 1/2mi down the road but it beat the S10 I raced. That was GREAT at cultivating...

 

[950speed]

I’ve gotten up to 40 on grass.
Yerf Dog 32001
Briggs 950 series bone stock and tav2

 

[rockman96]

GPS @52mph on a modified Streaker with a 420. I weighed 250lb then.

 

[Brother Turtle]

I just bought my son a 13 model Hammerhead GTS 150. With no mods to it, and both of us on it, we got up to 33 on grass. Not too bad since he weighs 150 and I'm 325.

 

[Phxminiguy52]

Top speed on restoration project Clarke Kart

Clocked at 63.4 mph. Briggs L0206. New everything added Hydraulic Disk brakes.

Top speed Taco 100b Predator 212 with mikini carb

New Taco 100b custom. Predator 212 with governor off and HD springs, mikini carb, stinger header, jackshaft, on VP 110 racing gas. 51.7 mph.. could probably squeeze a bit more out of it with different gearing but that's with good takeoff off power and around the block power as well as a pretty darn decent top speed. I weigh 150 lb.
Thanks to the guys at Taco mini bikes for a great build on this one.

Your list of mods doesn't mention increased compression ratio or advanced timing, so why such an expensive fuel?
