If yer talking about a road machine that must carry some serious weight, then low RPM torque is the name of the game, not insurance – try 1200ccs and up for regular lugging of 400-500#s… If you don’t mind rowing the gearbox regularly then, yer talking horsepower and there are tolerable bikes from about 500cc on up that will get the job done for awhile…
But -- bikes and riders that are mismatched for each other, and the job they’re expected to do, eventually avoid one another… an insured bike sitting in the garage is about the same as no bike at all… |
Very well said, about the best advice i've heard on this subject.
Sir I salute you.
