If you are spending even a split second thinking about or glancing at your tach while riding, you're setting up for trouble. The CB is an easy bike to figure out by seat of the pants riding. It delivers linear power at low revs, vibrates in the middle and has a nice final punch towards the top of the rev range. The correlation between high RPM's and potentially unsafe situations is bunk. Acceleration and engine braking can be offensive and defensive powers. Get it into the gear that feels right, and roll on/ roll off, Grasshopper.
