What do most of yall see for a top speed on the 150? I posted this before the crash but never got to see any responses. Thanks, Dan

Greetings Dan, My Icebear trike 150-9 stock would do 55MPH down hill with a back wind. I just put the high performance stuff on it and will be out this weekend to test the added performance stuff. I installed the high performance coil, ird spark plug and wire, CDI, clutch and variator kits. Hopefully this will be the start of a higher top end. Next will be bigger tires. This group has helped me several times with various questions and concerns. Enjoy the group, get a trike and enjoy the ride. Triker98304

Usually the most you will see is 55mph without any mods and that is if the Front Sprocket is the lastest one with 29 teeth. If it has 24 teeth the most you will see is 50mph. Alleyoop

kenb6656, Sounds like you have the 29 tooth sprocket already. Check it out with a car and see if your speedo close to accurate. But 93kph is almost 58mph so I would say your in the ball park if your speedo is not to far off. Alleyoop

At 93 kph, I don't think it had topped out, I ran out of street(signal turned red ahead) not sure what top end is. Although I have had it about 1 year, and just hit 300km

Yes, there is another Triker Dwild62 that has the same one 150-11 it will do 55mph, the 11s have the Digital speedo Dwild62 put on the GPS and the speedo was off almost 10mph. Yours already has the 29 tooth sprocket and is 50lbs heavier than my PST150H trike, mine weighs in at 353lbs. Alleyoop

Fastest I've seen is 68mph on the chinometer, but it's several mph off, so I'm estimating 60mph. I'm light though(140lbs.)

This is all amazing. The fastest I've gotten my Znen Rowdy 150 is about fifty.
Any faster, it goes into the redline...and a warning light on the panel flashes to let me know, it's really happening.
I could change gearing; but it takes so long to get UP to that speed; and frequently bogs down on gentle hills...it's not worth it.
I'm re-learning the pleasures of cruising at 45. Really...it's an excellent urban bike, 90 mpg. Just not fast.
That's a 150 in my mind.

Mine a real 58mph. Chinometer reads 70 with cars passing me by to remind me I'm still going slower.

I'm re-learning the pleasures of cruising at 45. Really...it's an excellent urban bike, 90 mpg. Just not fast. Yep. My 150 TKA is about the same. I got it strictly as an in-town bike, and it is fine for that. Most of the speed limits around here in town are 30, 35, 40, or 45 mph. I have learned a bit more patience, because mine is a conversation-starter around town - I get a number of folks asking about it. There is a lady here in town with a CanAm Spyder, and says she gets the same thing. The reverse-trike thing is still very unusual.

Mine is stock and will do 55-58 but you have to run it hard to get there it does best at 45-50
