Another comment, she does well on the hwy despite the reports I have read. Sure she's a little busy but she loves 73 mph. Spins @ 8500 doing 80 mph. Never did I feel I was going to be run over or did any sort of mechanical empathy kick in. I wouldn't hesitate taking her down the hwy for a couple hour trip. Of course I have her big (BIG) sister for that kind of slabbing.
LOL... I could not run anything at 8,500 rpms for any length of time. Heck neither my FJR, either of my two CB1100's, my ST 1300, my Triumph Bonneville, either of my two FZ-01s, or my 750 Nighthawk (well over 300,000 miles on those 8 bikes) none saw over 6,000 rpms and only over 5,000 rpms a couple of times between them. Just not a revver kinda guy.
