...as a first bike.
The moto guide on this site lists it as 80 bhp. But weren't the testing standards from back then a lot more lax on how you tested and how the power was actually measured? Or am i just trying to justify a 80 hp bike as my first road bike? Though it's only $750 and i think i'm going to just say damn the hp and get it. Anyone have any info or experiance with one of these things?
FYI it's my first road bike, but i've been riding a dirtbike this past season, so i'm thinking "grey area". Yes i did take MSF and got my motorcycle endorsment for my license.
