japs are smarter than Americans, thats why those bikes go so fast
I'm pretty sure it was an american that convinced Honda to go with 4 cyl. on the first 750. He ws interviewed for a show in history channel about bikes.

1450 usually shuts those little 1000cc guys up real quick...
I have a 600cc sports bike with a top end of 146mph , and a 1584cc dyna street bob with top end of 110mph i dont understand your point ?
Engine size doesnt determine the Quicker bike if thats you point or is a bigger engine a ***** extension in yourworld ?
