If you want raw horse power try a Hoss! Don't wear a hoodie because at 145 mph they fill with air and will pull you off the bike !!! How do you think I know that one?

 

Well now then there. My 99 Softail Custom EVO 80 has all the power I need, to do what ever it is I need to do. Outside of the drag pipes and K&N, it is stock, and has just the right balance of power. I love her just the way she is.

 

Usually with coffee in one hand. My muscle bike is a GL1800.... LOL..

 

Seating position makes a difference, it's gonna be harder to hold on if your bike has a laid back cruiser position with forward controls. With mid pegs and standard position, it's not too bad, with rearsets on a sportbike, no problem.

 

I've been accused of being crazy......... wait..Those were my ex wives...They really don't count...

100/100 grab the throttle and go.....

 

I guess if you have never ridden sport bikes it may seem strange to want that much power but it's really not that big of a deal. I know mine stock was very un-apealing.

 

I don't think everyone with that much torque/hp are blasting on it all the time every time. Just ride like any bike. Use the power when you need/want to. You always have to ride within your limitations no matter how much power you have.

 

Seriously?
My RoadKing is alot of great things but fast/powerful is not one of them...
even at 100/100 It would hardly be a "hang On' Situation...
just sayin'

 

That bitch climbs pretty good. Nicely done...

 

My friend Bill says you should masterbate more to strengthen your grip. He's an expert.
