Gav836 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Top speed listed in the spec sheet is 27mph so without a true ground speed radar it would show 50kph I reckon, especially if she has different boots on to the books rated speeds, amazing what a set of tyres can do to ground speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 All I know Gav is that I knew the speedo was showing 50k and when following tractors I always had to slow down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstarâ„¢ Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 To be honest i dont normally drive it 50k all the time because after every corner and you straighten up you get severe speed wobbles \ But on the straights it's ideal. I agree it does shift for the size it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it does shift for the size it is! i bet, the mf1250 did that if you were toodling along the road flat out, was a very weird experiance to say the least, especially with the dowsdwell on the back, really snaked a bit then, my uncle who did most of the ploughing got caught a few times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 I bet! I havn't been properly caught out yet but the first time I got on a wobble it was a bit hairy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
