So the weather yesterday was stunning so I finally talked myself into riding the 1 hour to one of my fave seaside towns.
Motorcycles always congregate on the Promenade and one of them was " 160 Cubic Inches "
I did the sums and found out that's about 2,500 CC - which is just ridiculous.
I ride a 125 CC and I can do 80 mph and overtake slow drivers. It's FINE.
Why do you need TWENTY times the power ?
Granted i've never ridden for more than 90 mins in one go but my bike is pretty comfy.
Since my road-worthi-ness test last October - I had some new bushings in my swing arm and the front fork adjusted. I took it up to 80
going down this ultra long hill near me and it felt VERY stable. Not like my old Yamaha SR 125 which at that speed left like I was in
