Re: Top speed of an SXViper?
had a 2000 sxr  t 103 on the gun one day which I thought was pretty good. But the Vipers are faster so you should be faster then that.  Had an 03 RX-1 and saw 117 mph on the speedo but only 97.7 on the GPS. hope this helps..  Any onbe have the apexs's on the dream meter yet???

Re: Top speed of an SXViper?
No I dont know what the Apex tops out at but I talk to a salesman at our local yammy dealership and he rode the 06' sleds about 10 months ago at a dealership ride and he had er goin 129 on speedometer but theyre usually off like u said with ur SRX and RX-1 but all he had to say was "wow, thats one heck of a fast sled," He went away to serve in Iraq for a while so he said hes gonna miss the 05-06 snowmobile season but onother salesman a couple weeks ago went to test ride the new 07' sleds and i cant wait to see what he says about them.  I'll keep ya posted on what the new 2007's are like according to him.

Re: Top speed of an SXViper?
thats sweet....i want to put triple pipes from most likely SLP or Bender on my Viper but I'll jeopardize the clutch performance so I'd have to modify my clutch and get an extra rear heat exchanger so its alot of money right there!>..but thanks for the replies

That same viper went 119 last week,  he writes in here his name is srx magic. He could help you get your machine to fly.

Had mine to 115 on the dream meter with a buddy who also had his apex doing the same.  Also, had  and f7 and rev 800 next to us.  F 7 has probably the most accurate speedo and he saw 102.

Re: Top speed of an SXViper?
 got a 06 apex and the speedo is way off, it says 129  gps says 106. alot of people i know with apexs grind 2 teeth off the speedo pickup to make it more accurate.

Re: Top speed of an SXViper?
My 06' Attak went 129 mph on the Dream-0-Meter.  Which was 114 on my GPS on the ice on a lake 28F.  Nice smooth ice with just a little snow on top.
