I have an '02 SuperSport. You're right, it is a 550 fan. I'm not sure what the top speed is, but I've had it just over 70. That wasn't it's top speed though. It's a great trail machine. I really like it. Just not great in the deep stuff.

Did you keep your supersport as a back up sled? I wish i had 2 brand new sleds.

I've still got the 550. A friend in planning on buying it eventually. It's a great sled. Light, great handling. Only problem is I want a long track for a lot of the places I ride.

My buddy was following me yesterday on his 2002 SS,I hit 95 on 2002 MXZ500 and he said 90 on his.

The thing with speedometers is that they can be off by a lot. I had my dad's indy trail up to 85 on the speedo and my friend was beside me and his said 75 so it varies quite a bit.

My dad's viper was doing 89MPH so the Radar gun said but his Speedo read 100.
on average speedometers are off by 12%
my friend has a 2000 supersport 550 fan...it does around 85 tops!! So if your lookin for a fast sled u found the wrong one..probably isn't a bad trail riding sled though!!
yeah its not the top of the line sled but it cant be beat for the price
