Default O.K., how fast have you gotten'r up to?

After doing some tweaking and adjusting with jetting and adding the D-tracker head pipe and can (not sure if its the same as the 300 or not) and putting the 14T back on the front I got on a straight back country road and I had it up to 85mph (indicated). I could have gotten it faster but at that speed it was losing power and the road had a bunch of up and down ***** on it. So it would pick up speed on the down, then lose it again on the up. I'm sure on a flat road I might be able to hit 90.

I think last time I weight myself I weight around 190 lbs. or so. Then as far as extra heavy gear. I just had my boots, heavy coat, helmet/goggles on. So, whatever that weighs.

I'm 215lbs with the stock gearing and "free mods" on a flat road at about 1800ft ASL, I hit and indicated speed of 84mph.

I am 240+ and I have been well into the 70's. I am still in the break in periord since I added my 300cc upgrade so I am not sure what it will do.

85 indicated is about 77mph or so...

Get a GPS so you can see just how inaccurate the stock speedo is

Unless you were going down a steep hill, you were not doing 94mph on your KLX

Indicated I had my bike up to 95 on a slight down grade, and I mean slight like 10 degree. At least that indicated on the speedo and maybe a little wind on my back. sea level with muzzy, dj kit and everything else stock at the time.
