Let's see ...... up on there on them narsty curvy mountain roads ......
I have beaten Ducati, BMW, Triumph, Sportster, 1200cc Sportster, various crotch rockets and a plethora of other bikes that were not very well ridden WHO COULD NOT USE THEIR UPPER END SPEED ADVANTAGE UP ON THE NC MOUNTAIN ROADS BUT WAS LIMITED TO THE FUNCTIONAL SPEED RANGES OF A MODIFIED SAVAGE SIMPLY DUE TO THE EXTREMELY CURVY ROADS. I could also do 90 mph in 4th gear on my slightly modified Savage. (could do it in third too, but didn't like the valves floating)
But that was back when I was young, now that I am all old and retired and partially crippled, well ......
I ride a Barcalounger
very carefully so as to not grind on the cross piece too much.
Catch some youngster starting a Cafe bike and buy his seat, rails, sissy bar and the works for next to nothing (he's stripping it off and throwing it away).
