Just curious to see what top speeds everyone is getting from their viking and what setups your running?

 

[CasparisviKING]

I have the roof, windshield, brushguard, 14in sti hd4s and 27x9 roctanes up front and 27x11 roctanes in the back. i was riding yesterday and altho i had a slow rhino sport in front of me the best i could do on flat ground was 42mph. it get to 33 with ease but after that takes awhile to get up to 42. from what i read that seems slow. maybe tires are heavy???

i got same tires 50 with ease ,got epi clutch kit on

 

[CasparisviKING]

how much air do you run in your tires? and do you hit 50 easy with the windshield up? also with the clutch kit how well does it do in mud and rocks and hills?

sorry for all the questions, just dont know much about these things and im trying to learn

 

[Viking2k14]

Ive really checked, but i think top speed is like 51mph i think.

I have stock tires and wheels, for now, and I have Yamaha folding windshield. Mine is an EPS model also, and I hit 50 with ease.

Does the clutch kit work good? I was thinking clutch kit or hunterworks sheave setup.

 

[CasparisviKING]

seems like everyones getting to almost 50 (easily) which was what i expected but 42 with jus me and a cooler of beer had me shocked. maybe i just got a slow one or maybe it still needs more break in time??? idk. only have 80 miles on it.

on another form hunterworks guy said epi dnt work for 150.00 less than paying 350.00 for theres ,mind works fine a dnt what to go too a longer gates belt and sheave set up u decided

I got 52 on pavement

I hit 82 km/h on a dirt road.....I'll make you guys convert units cause I had to convert yours LOL

If my calculations are correct that's 49 mph. Mine with stock tires would do 51 with ease. Now I have 27s all around with windshield and it does about 44 mph on pavment. The bigger tires make the stock setup slugish. I will be doing a sheave or clutch kit next spring. Spent way to much this season already and once fall hits its time to get the snowmobiles ready and that will drain the cash flow even worse. Lol

30's 2" lift. Easy cruising on soft dirt roads holding 35mph on speedo. GPS had me at 40mph not wide open at all. I'll try an get it on a pave rd soon with gps. Should do 50mph easy I would think. Stock clutch.

 

[Jond09]

I'll try an get a new pic with lift soon.

Im thinking mine just needed some breakin time because last week with me the wife and a cooler full of bud lite i got up to 49 on pavement. couldve went even faster i think but was nervous about takn a paved corner at 50+ mph so i let off the gas. i still want to get the sheeve and clutch kit some day though

 

[Bloodline]

It's 51 mph. I tried everything I could to see 83 Kmph but I think the governor holds it at 82 Kmph

 

[Big Blue Viking]

Yeah governed at 82kms on the speedo but on 30's I just hit 93kms actual speed on the GPS
