The engine in top gear has enough oomph for highway riding in the lower RPM range..
Lacking the RPM restrictions that were spelled out for other bikes that I've bought new, I gladly did as Honda suggested for the CB1100.
I never gave it full throttle.
As I normally ride in the lower RPM ranges anyway, I just otherwise rode it like I normally do.
Actually, to this day, I don't think I've ever ridden the 1100 at full throttle. I've just never felt the need. Maybe I'll try it next week just to see what it's like :-)
