Yea only 88 lol. You'll never hit 88 drag racing even with the Big3. Once you get the power to get there then worry about more top speed. You'll just hurt the performance of the bike putting a taller gear if you don't have the power to pull it.

True true... need more power to crank that sprocket. Turbocharger?? jk i turbo'd my yfz and it was no fun to ride. it was like a 2 stroke from hell. When i hit 86 i was going with the wind and i was wide open for i would say a mile...

 Wouldn't need to turbo it, Head work, cam and higher compression will get you there and then some.

I wouldnt mind a cam. That is if i could find one... piston would come later. Im not opening it up till I hurt it. Oh, I'm an ATV mechanic on the side. Self taught what to do and what not to do on internals. Clearances are the key to a well built motor. Know of any good camshaft upgrades? Hotcams would be my first choice. But they dont have one yet.
