Max speed went from 82 to 90mph!
« on: May 29, 2015, 06:35:26 AM »
When I first got my Kymco DT 300 a year ago, my max speed at full WOT was 82mph.

Today, after 2500 miles, I noticed my max speed at WOT was 90mph @ 8000rpm.   :) :) :)

How awesome is that?   Just curious, will it go any higher than that?

  It is just broken in,  you will see about 95 MPH. tops,.  unless you do some mods,.  some people in germany had there scooters  over 100 MPH.

Also wind, how many cheeseburgers you ate that day, tire pressure, oil level,temperature and humidity, all these and more play into top speed.

Hi

I have did 95 once but then I still had some throttle before it was WOT.  I was fun and scary at the same time.
