Getting a Mule soon once stop sale over.

Only issue I have is Mule is limited to 47 mph.

Most of my road around my place (before getting to off-road) is 40 mph.  However most people drive 50 mph.  I would like to be able to go 50 mph in the Mule for short distances (2-3 miles) while on the public roads.  I know the engine is more than capable since the same engine is in the Arctic Cat Prowler Crew and those are limited to 51 mph.  So what tune/piggyback is safe to add the 3-4 mph more top end I'm desiring?  Thanks

It probably is possible to get a few extra MPH. Of course, the engine may already be capable of doing 50+, you just need to take that rotational power and put it to the ground. Via transmission and centrifugal clutches..

But going over a limited speed is tough on a CVT system drive belt since it heats up fairly quickly when running at a sustained speed. And can cause cracking and overall premature wear.

I can also say for certain any modifications you do will most likely void the warranty.

      2015 Massimo 550 Throttle Position Sensor issue
      By TexAcoon
      I'm looking to purchase a 2015 Massimo 550 that might have an issue with it's throttle position sensor.   
      From the fella selling this UTV, he claims its to set the idle on fuel injection because the engine will not stay idle or when it starts sometimes it idles too high.
      My Question if anyone had any issues with their Massimo 550 and if it was actually the TPS or something else that would allow the machine to idle correctly.
      Thanks!

      2020 Axis 500 - only getting reverse and neutral
      By JimG
      Recently, my unit Axis 500 (2020) will only go into reverse and neutral. I am not able to get high or low. The engine itself sounds fine and I do not have other issues on this unit. I change the engine oil but have not yet changed the gear oil.
      Before this happened I occasionally encountered issue where going from reverse to high gear, it would grind some and i had to reposition to shift into high gear. I also for last couple weeks heard a squeaking sound. I couldn't tell what it was. Was looking for a grease point I missed.
      The unit has around 70 hours and is kept in the garage.
      Anyone else encounter this type of scenario? Any suggestions on troubleshooting would be appreciated. Thanks.

      Michigan Emergency Brake Road legal Requirement.
      By Michigan sport.
      I'm sure many of you are aware of Michigan's emergency brake requirement.  I'm wondering if anyone has a good solution. 
      Beyond paying the few fab places $$$$.. I'm curious is there another rear caliper with e brake style that would interchange with slight mods to  the Maverick sport rear mounting bracket?
