Hello I have a 1999 g16e, just upgraded to navitas 440 controller looking for speed upgrade, seems to only top off at 11-12mph, 13 with the wind lol, any recommendation would be appreciated, just looking to get to 17-20 tops

Great question! I called a couple companies today and was told that I needed to buy BOTH a new controller and new motor for my G16e to get ANY increase in speed. I was bummed since I was planning to just upgrade motor or controller, not both. I hope there’s a better solution on this forum, but you may need to buy a different motor. An Admiral motor was recommended to me. What was your top speed before installing new Controller? I get around 13mph with my stock motor and controller

Why not do the PTV tune on your OBC from a Yamaha dealer? It should get you upwards of 17-19mph tune only for about $175.
