So, here's the deal: You should STOP listening to whoever told you that; likely they will feed you some other mis-information too. IOW, they are blowing smoke out......well you know!

A stock GZ will do 70....not easily but it will. And it will sustain it too on a flat road with no head wind.

As far as the handling goes, it's about as close to a bicyclye as you can get.
It handles VERY good for a motorcycle.[/quote:1k37el20]

i had my gz up around 73 maybe 74 mph, easy to do as long as your not going up hill just takes a min to get up to that speed. it felt like it had some more get up and go left in it but i figured that was pushing it enought, i was just testing it out to see what it would do.

it handles great around corners, but its a rough going over bumps, at least mine was.
