Title: Top Speed
Post by: vernfirz on September 11, 2017, 01:55:01 AM
What are the top speeds for the 450 and the 700?  My 450 mxu top speed is 56, which is plenty fast enough.  Just curious of what the s x s top out at.

EDIT:. In miles per hour.

    My 450i tops out right at 48mph without the windshield and about 45mph with the windshield up. Plenty fast for me, when on the road I normally cruise around 30 mph

I've seen 49 on mine one time, generally tops out at 46-48, depending on variables.

I usually cruise at about ¼ throttle, that puts me in the 40-45 mph range

if I have my foot on the floor, the engine is bouncing off the rev limiter

Mine has hit 50 mph before. This is on a flat paved road of coarse with a full windshield and knocking on the rev limiter. As stated above the engine is comfortable 40-45 mph. Oh an don't forget click your seat belt or your speed is limited also.

I was not aware of that, I did know that the turbo doesn't kick in on a Polaris Turbo RZR if the seat belts aren't clicked

I'm not used to wearing seatbelts..... NH is the only state that doesn't require that you wear them on the street

Well yes at 48mph I am on the rev limiter so 45 is just barely off it, but foot is very near the floor!!

News to me..however when I am on the road I do use the seat belt, it makes things go over much easier when the sheriff passes by. When going slow I don't use it but for fast offroad or on the street ...always!!
One thing I have always wanted to do but never got around to it was to check the speedo on my GPS....anyone tried that yet?

This is from my Montana 600. I was on the rev limiter and the speedo was showing 48-49. Im just the messenger. Saw the same on my Etrex.
