>>33179Elevation, dude. Robs a ton of power from the engine. Most of the guys that ride the terrain I do all have 450+ engines.
Get up to 12k ft and you'll be using every bit of that 525 and still wishing you had more. There's no trees in this pic because the trees stopped about 1500 vertical feet down.
I bought it knowing I was going to plate it and very likely use it for commuting (My daily commute is >10mi round-trip, the bike saves a -ton- of money vs. the truck). Nice to have the displacement so you're not revving the shit out of the engine to keep up with traffic. 6th gear just off idle puts me at 45m/h, and the bike does about 80mpg there.
