So the vibes arent that bad at 60-65? Tolerable enough to go for a hour without stopping?

60-65 is very comfortable for me on the freeway. One of my favorite Friday-after-work rides is to blast down I-25 about 50 miles then get off and head back home on the back roads. Only time the Savage shows it's weaknesses is when a semi blasts past me doing 80. I get blown about a bit but nothing dangerous.

Now, if you want to do 80 all the time, I would look for a different bike. But 60-65 is fine.

the savage does just fine, i ride the heck out of it way faster than 70 and the only negative is she eats up the fuel more quickly had speeds higher than 65. and the back fires are cool man! great way to wake up the neibghors.

if you get one, trust me youll love it. this bike has serious personality. I thought i wouldnt like mine too much, but with in 2 weeks and 1000miles, i am in love!
