yamadoo said:My 2010 GT vector shows 104 with my 270 on lake hard pack and on a great day 108 with my 90 pound lighter son in perfect lake ice with a little snow. This speedo is much more accurate then my old 06 Apex....... So they are no Apex rocket but they move alright. (Apex hit 124 on the perfect day described above)
Some Tyers will remember helping me cut off the belt after that 104 high speed run- Hey it had 7thousand miles on it. This was on the Ty Manitoba ride....lots of fun
Do these numbers show on the speedometer, or on the GPS?
Thanks,
Mike

- Bought a new 05 Vector which I still have
24K miles
The speedo on my 05 Vector is consistently 10% higher in speeds across the MPH range vs. actual on my GPS.

No reason to worry about ethanol except for long term storage so just run the 87.
Conditions are huge my 05 carb has days where low90s is it. On hard ice with maybe an inch of powder I saw 110 on the gauge that was perfect conditions just enough snow to lube the slides.
