Hooo! It's got a centerstand!
Taller knees may disagree with the cylinders

Test Notes
Speedo error:60 mph, actual 56

Yes, indeed: a traditional, two-valve V-twin power curve. There's more than 50 foot-pounds of torque from 2000 to 8000 rpm, with no large peaks or valleys between.

Performance with test-session weather conditions corrected to sea-level standard conditions (59 degrees F, 29.92 in. of mercury)
