Re: [ST] Higher RPM for racing?

[Dave Bardell <bardelld@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wow, definitely not a cruiser.  This is not the bike I was thinking about. 
94 MPG (US) and 452 pounds.  I can live with that!!!!
Would like to see a torque curve on this thing.  Too bad we will 
probably never see it over here in the US.
But with a little higher set of bars and a tankbag, luggage rack, a set 
of throwover bags - Oh yeah..!! 
A tank range of 447 miles!!!

What a sport tourer  .:>)
