    Average Top Speeds?

    I'm just curiose, I was looking around the board, found a few, just wondering if there is a site or anything? Just wondering on top speeds for different 3 wheelers.

    Also, 200es slower then a 200e? I was told because the es has reverse it will slow it down, giving the e an advantage. Thanks.

    im not sure if thats true but since they are the same cc, and the es is shaft which adds weight, and the e is chain, I think the e would go faster.

    Ya I was figuring that too. My buddy has a 200e with a frotn end conversion, so its a 4 wheeler (I know, he shoulda kept it a 3 wheeler) And he's currently rebuilding it, new piston, rings, and 2nd gear (there was a tooth missing). He said once he's done and has it broke in he can beat me ina a drag. I'm doubting he can. His front end isnt much heavier then mine surprising, his front tires are pretty small. But I am still thinking something is done to mine because it goes soo fast, he keeps comparing his to mine saying if mine does 50 his will do 55 or 60. I seriously duobt it. Thats why I'm looking for stock speeds for them. Seeing if when stock who would win. I'm gunna put money on it, but wanna be sure I can win first.

    the average speed of my SXs is 53 or so mph. So your ES should do like 48 stock.

    It all depends on how BIG your arse is. Weights plays a big role. I had a 250SX and ES at the same time. My buddy would ride one or the other. He weighed 145lbs. I weigh 280. Whichever he was on, won. Evey time. I would bet that weight can affect speed as much as 5 to 8mph on any trike.

    The 250es does about 45, stock. The 200e is suprisingly faster, probably about 48-49 (don't have a speedo on that one yet so I'm not sure).

    A 250sx will do about 51-52 stock.

    A 350x goes at least 50 (ahhh-duuuhhh) lol, I clocked it with my mom's Outlander.

    Id put my money on the 200e because it is chain drive. Ive been told that with shaft drive you get 75% of your power to the rear wheels but with chain you get 95%

    Well My X would do about 65 with me on it. The wife. Over 70 im sure. I could bairely get the front tire off the ground in 4th. Most folks can do that with ease. But they dont weigh 280. A buddy did 72 or 74 on his. Thats plenty fast.

    Was out with 4 of the big quads today.. on open hard packed dirt road.. they clocked me at a steady 55 mph.

    Guy on the bombardier laughed his head off after we stopped.. he was in front.. he's like " Man.. i can't beleive it.. that little bugger is FAST... i was sure you'd have been 5 minutes behind me but every time i turned around.. there you were ! "..

    I had it pinned... letting go to make corners and just barely.. then right back on it..

    Has a K/N filter and a beat up exhause that lets alot of air go past the sides.. so i'm slightly faster than stock i think !! :P
    Currently :
