    A 350X with 20 inch tires will do about 55 MPH

    With 18's it will do about 50MPH

    I'm not sure, i could check my shop manual and see what redline is, but i dont know if top speed comes at peak tq or hp, they tend to drop off after the tq peak and feel slower. It's probably close enough for a stock bike.

    Elaborate on what u mean. for a gearing calculator? I havent found one for the 200x but i never really looked either. The calculator doesent work off just rpm.

    i bought a nos 350x engine and just broke in it did 65 on a bushnell radar gun(same model cops use) with stock rear tires and gearing. with 20's you would be lucky to hit 60 depending on if they were rounded tires or flat
