Just curious how low is the gearing on the 70, I wouldnt mind having a mini trike. I have some 110's right now and they do fine in the low range for putting around.

Keep in mind the 70 was for a little kid. 230lbs will load the motor down.

im 230 and my 70 moves me around pretty good . i noticed the newer ones that are 4 speed seem to do better than the older 3 speed models . or you can always put a bigger motor in one . one of mine has a extreme 110 manual 4 speed and runs around 54 plus in no time .

:shocked: 54 plus? MPH or Degrees? On a 110? I only clocked 57 on my
350X in MS and I'm 190 lbs. Plus, it has 6 speeds. :wtf: Dan's 2 smoker Tecate clocked in at 64 mph and Docs R clocked 69 mph.
That must be a very badass 110!

pff, if it has a engine, im gonna try riding it. I Dont mean is this thing going to make my fly down the road lol. I'm just curious if I can get around on it. I guess I can always gear it down to nothing? drop a few teeth off the front and gain a few on the back? I just thought they were really cool and wanted to get one for the stable.

Gearing man...makes all the difference. My old Tri-Z would do well over 70, just gained some teeth up front, lost a couple out back...and she was good to go.

For putting around on CH, it will do just fine with you on it.

Hey, don't take that as the last word on T3 top speed. :doh: Mine didn't pull 5th for some reason. :nono: :cry: 64mph was basically through 4th gear. :lala:
Heck my kids atc70 pulls me around just fine. :eek:
64mph was basically through 4th gear. :lala:
