Hawk 250

Had my 2017 Hawk 250 out this evening and I could only hit 53 mph. I need more speed. Is this it's upper limit with it stock and a 250 lb 6'3" rider?
I'm also at about 5000 ft elevation. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Mike

Give the bike time to break in. Almost every thread I have read about new bikes and gearing, everybody has reported the bikes pick up more as they break in.

I think they mean actual, not indicated. Assuming you're stating this via the gauge cluster
