Any 500 or 550 should be able to do 160 km/h minimum. That's 100 M/h i believe. My 500 does 170 km/h nose between the gauges and 185 km/h on the Dynostand.

Cheers, maybe the jets I have in are too small for the non standard exhaust. If I remember correctly they're 98s at the moment. Would that be killing top speed?
