I'm not entirely sure why this fixation with bigger bikes. My Harley rider friend is impressed that the bike can do freeway speeds. People think you can't do longish road trips with them, but you can
I think over the three years of having this bike there were once or twice I wished I had more power. Like noted above, to make a pass, I have to plan it a bit, kick down a gear, that kind of thing, but once I'm in the right gear, it's good.
I have noticed if I put the tachometer around 7,000 rpm, my speed will tell me what gear I'm in. So it kind of does have a gear indicator of sorts. 40MPH, at 7000RPM, will be 4th gear. 50 will be 5th. 60MPH in 5th gear? RPM will be 8000, 8500, something like that.
