P500 What's the top speed of the 500?

[catnip]

A 2016 500 arrived at its new home (mine!) yesterday. I've only ridden it around the block but can't wait till my first off-road ride. I'm just curious what the top speed of the 500 is? I don't "need" speed but was just wondering.

40ish depending on conditions...

 

[Chooglin]

40-42 mph

 

[catnip]

Cool. More than enough speed!

Welcome to the forum Catnip. 42-43 on mine (because blue ones are faster ), but at that speed the engine sounds like you stepped on the cats tail!

 

[Dp5hunter]

Around 38 to 43 depending on tire siz.

Change you odometer to Kilometers Per hour and it looks like you are going really fast.

Welcome catnip! 62 mph on mine down a 10%er in neutral.

72 in a 65 on trailer.

That sounds like a white knuckle ride to me!

Oh thank God I bought a blue one...

I think P500 drivers need to learn a few driving tricks to improve there speed.
I little method might be cheaper than a Dobeck.

I've had mine up to 42 several times. Blinks 43 for a sec then the limiter kicks in.
I think they go faster if you leave the sway bar on.
