On a couple railroad grades i got up to 90-95. I havent gotten my 500 over 95 yet, so im calling 95 its top speed. Dads had his 700 up to 110 on a lake, but who knows how off the speedo is. My brother has our old Ultra SPX up to 105 in a field out back. Its probably around 1/4 mile, most likely a little more.

There is nothing more satisfying than speed. Speed is addictive, remember you can only go faster.

Best to get real familiar and comfortable with your sled before you
push the envelope, even on a well known lake, trail, road or wherever.
When ****stuff happens, it happens fast!
If you're not
livin on the edge,
Then you're
takin' up space!

Had my old xcr 800 past 120 once on a real long stretch and I was too scared to hit the brake. Had my M7 up to 95 a couple times, but I do most of my riding at speeds less than 60mph.

are you talking about trail riding?
our trails connect up with old logging roads and swamps,so doing 70-80 isn't that hard to do. riding thru the woods averageing 50-60.
