|  How much engine do I *really* need
Hiya folks, Over the past couple of years my interests in motorcycles has grown significantly. My brother purchased a TL1000S two years ago, I tried it out and was hooked! My father in law has a '96 virago 1100 and I've ridden this bike and it was ok. It was pretty ugly, however. The power was ok...nothing to write home about. Now here's my question: I'm thinking about purchasing a bike this year, but I am unable to ride for a few months and I've been itching all winter to find out something which my wife brought up...how much displacement do I really need? I am 340lbs or so and my wife is less than 160 lbs or so. We'd like to do some touring together eventually, but mostly this is my ride for commuting and highway travels. Oh yeah, I'm waaay up in Calgary Alberta...I love the mountains. So there you have my life story...ideas? |
