Well...you really dont need to hit the limiter with all the torque throughout the rev range. Which is probly why they dont have the redline.

they really are a nice bike, and when you keep up on the sparkplugs they dont get that bad gas milage honestly

more power then you could use with a few cheap "free" mods, being able to lift the front tire at 100 is a nice touch too

just im too big a pussy to ride this bike like that

I wanna see if they'll let me ride it. They are notorious for over pricing their stuff...as most dealers are.

and the suspension is actually pretty damn good and when you adjust it properly it really can shine, the brakes are damn good, the power is everywhere and the reliablility is great, one of the guys ran his rc vs a busa and was off the line faster and only got passed when they hit over 100mph

what price range are you looking at i know of some pigs that are sale on other boards that are going for reasonable price

Of course the Honda reliability is 2nd to none. And I put new plugs in my Gix once a year as it is. So 2 plugs ain't gonna be shit to me.
