How fast does a 400cc scooter go?

Answer 1

I currently own and ride a 250 cc scooter and top speed for this unit ( roketa,tank,Apollo,JMStar,Mustang) Honda reflex 250 clone is about 60 mph. I myself am just a little too tall at 5 foot eleven inches to take full advantage of the windscreen and my 357 pound weight has some bearing as well. Usually the formula for horsepower available is equal to cubic inch displacement. I. E. 50cc = 3.3 hp and 100 cc = 6.6 hp. So my 250 cc clone has 16.5 or 16 - 17 horsepower 250 / 50 = 5 x 3.3 = 16.5 . I am currently looking for a 400 cc scooter that would be capable of 90 mph ( 400 / 40 = 8 x 3.3 = 26.4 horsepower. Going backwards a 100 cc scooter would only have 6.6 hp and only do approx 30 - 35 mph with me riding , and my whole intention of going two wheel again is to be enclosed behind an integrated windscreen while saving huge amounts of fuel compared to my 27 mpg thunderbird which has a 3.8 liter v-6 at 231 cubic inches displacement.1000 cc is equal to 67 cubic inches but the industry does play with the numbers to some degree.......................timranmor@Yahoo.com....................
