raw torque is great, but HP is lacking compared to the other liters, for the gas milage i get it should be alot more peppy, the stock rc is very bogged down by emissions and epa placed valves and soft rev limiters, just cant get good performance, so you must do a bunch of free mods just to get what shoulda been stock performance and ridability in the first place

and its very heavy

and no, i am no where near the bikes potential, its all just arm chair racing

one thing ill never get tired of is that v twin sound

I voted Kawasaki and Buell... I ride a Buell... and rode a Kawi... I guess I rode a couple Hondas and a Yamaha when I was a kid, but that was so long ago... I am not particularly brand loyal.

Buell Blast for now. Hoping to upgrade to a late 90s early 2000s 600 or 750 this spring though.
