NHTSA Complaint #10257275 — 2008 KTM 450 EXC R

I STARTED BECOMING CONCERNING WITH THIS PROBLEM, AFTER SEARCHING DISCOVERING TIRES ARE RATED BY A LETTER FOR MAX SPEED. THE LETTER ON MY MC-13-250 SCOOTER IS RATED J WHICH MEANS A MAX SPEED OF 62 MPH. ON WWW.ROKETA.COM, THE COMPANY THAT SELLS MC-13-250, CLAIMS THE SCOOTER WILL DO A MAX SPEED OF 68.4 MPH, WHICH THUS SHOULD REQUIRE A RATING OF K, WHICH IS FOR 68 MPH VEHICLES. THE TIRE HAS THE CHANCE TO BLOWOUT, IF IT GOES THE SPEED THE MANUFACTURER CLAIMS. WWW.SCOOTDAWGFORUM.COM HAS PEOPLE ON THIS SITE, CLAIMING TO DO 80 TO 85 MPH ON THESE SCOOTERS. WWW.EXTREME-SCOOTERS.COM IS THE ONLINE DEALER WHOM SOLD ME MINE AND CLAIMS THEY WILL DO 85 MPH. THERE ARE OTHERS ONLINE AS DEALERS CLAIMING THE MC-13-250 WILL DO 75 TO 85 ALSO. SOME STICK TO THE MANUFACTURERS CLAIMS AND ONE SAYS 62 MPH, TO PROTECT THEM SELVE IF SOMETHING OCCURS. I DO NOT KNOW ANYONE WHOM HAD AN ACCIDENT TO THE RATING OF THE TIRES. *TR
