The gearing is already good for 170, but the aero will never let it happen. Air gets too hard at that speed.

So far in limited testing, my Gen Is have a slightly higher top speed than my Gen II. Gens Is top out around 150-159mph (GPS speed) and well into the redline at around 10,000 rpm.

Gen II tops out at about 150mph and 8250 rpm.

Also different is the rev limiter. Gen I - 10,300 rpm or so when rev limiter hits. Gen II - 9200 rpm rev limiter hits.
