How much money you got? They can break 100mph easy.

Had mine up to 91 and had more but had to grab a handful cause some blind old lady pulled out in front of me. Mines geared 14/42 so not exactly a top speed gearing.

About 133MPH

Use this gearing calculator to figure it out.
http://www.everything2stroke.com/content/42-Gearing-Calculator-Quadzilla

15 front 34 rear, 22" roll-out at 9,000RPM

Have spun my motor up to 9,300 before with Q pipe on China so 9K on flat ground is pretty much as far as I'd want to take it.

Wheni had the stock cylinder on my 500 and aaen pipe i tryed 15-38 gearing with 22s, when i hit 5th gear it was flat on its face, i think the engine would pop before it pulled the gear,  it did 90mph on gps with  14-42 20inch tires with that pipe and cylinder though

That calculator says my top speed would be 110mph at 9000rpm.  So it would probably get to about 80 and break.

I dont think those gearing calculators are accurate, tire sizes are never the same, and tire growth will change the calculated outcome

I think it's fairly close at least for mine bc when I bought mine I ride it on the highway and was passing cars in third and it said my 3rd gear wild be 67mph at that's with stock motor with fmf exhaust and v3 reeds and 22 in tires and 14/40 gears but I don't know much about the charts and stuff so I might have just got lucky with mine.
