My 2013.5 Wildcat 1000X Limited will not go over 7000RPM in High, and will therefore not go much faster than 80KM/hr. I have installed a Dalton clutch kit, which made little to no difference, other than it seems to engage at a slightly higher RPM than previous. I can spin the tires/fishtail at lower speeds, but once I get up to about 60 KM/Hr, there is not much punch to full throttle application, and RPM will hit 7000 briefly and then fall back to just under that. 80-85KM/Hr is top speed. My riding partner in a RZR 1000 will lose me pretty easily when we are ditch banging on good trails, as he seems to have much better mid range punch and way more top end speed. Trying to figure out what may be the issue with the top end being relatively low. By most accounts I am reading that my top end should be 70-75MPH, or 110-120KMH, and I am not close to that. The only other modification was that I put on a snorkel kit last winter. Is it possible that the machine is lacking air at top end in high gear? I can get 7500RPM in low gear, but not in high. Could this be a computer setting on the machine that needs adjusting? Looking for options to gain a little top end speed, closer to what others are reporting. I purchased the machine used last summer but didn't push it hard last year. This year I'm using all available power and find myself disappointed with the results. Appreciate any help anyone out there can offer. Thanks
