Max Cruising Speed for GZ250

steve · 09-27-2007, 06:01 PM

Hey everyone,

New member here from the Washington, DC area. I've been riding a GZ250 for nearly a year and I use it on a daily basis to commute to/from work.

It's been ultra-reliable and I'm pretty satisfied with one exception which is I have a little difficulty keeping up with highway traffic. About 5 miles of my daily commute is on the highway and I feel like the max speed that I can comfortably cruise at for 5 miles without putting too much stress on the engine is about 60-65mph. Since the average speed of the cars around me is more like 70-75mph it kind of sucks.

What about you guys? Is that around the max speed you feel comfortable pushing your bike? What's the max speed you've ever driven?
