They had one a couple of years back in that mountain race in NZ. I think it is called "the race to the clouds". I might be wrong there. But it had a souped up Hyabussa engine & foils front & back to make it stick to the road. I forget the top speed but it was fast. Probably as fast as a KFX700

A bloke from Tassie who raced at the Finke last year reckoned he had his Banshee up to 160 beside a bike that was wound out on a dirt road. He reckoned it had another 20 k in it. This was in Tassie & not the Finke
Anyone been faster?

officially, 129 km on the raptor, according to the vapor speedo that wa measured at a km for accuracy.

On gravel i wouldn't want to go faster..

P.s, youngy's kawa 700 passes me like I am standing still at 90, so he must pull a bit more than the raptors top speed.

Let's not get into arguments about gearing and crap, stick to standard stuff, then let's talk about who gets from 0 to 60 the quickest... laughing

I didnt know the KFX700 have a good top speed, got used to looking back at em when i raced a couple with my old bomber.
Never raced a rap700, would like to see that
Anyone has official digits.
Modified or stock, it doesnt matter.

I do belive in standard trim the old 88 ,89 model suzuki quadzilla was the fastest quad of its time(stock),up untill the new can am with over 50hp standard come out this year.
not sure on top speed but if you can beat me on top end your doing well..

I think Matt Coulter holds the record for the fastest Quad. Set on an airstrip in England. He also was pillion when a guy set the record for fastest Blind person on a quad.Not sure of speed think about 140mph on a Banshee with a worked RG 500 motor. (very cool quad)
