Victory parts suck - Page 11

I just read the info on the Aprilia Mana 850 GT ABS, I was blown away at the
761 hp it has! Phew, that is a real bike.

Looks like a decent ride. Windscreen and gas tank are a bit on the small side for touring, as are the bags. Have had a chain drive before. Don't really want another. But why do you find 76 hp and 57 ft lbs of torque so impressive?

Sarcasm? 761 typo?

Greg, what to you carry to snack on at the stops signs while you wait for Kris to catch up?

I don't carry snacks as I usually have time to sit down and have a good steak, potatoes, salad, and a nice dessert.:cool::eek::rolleyes:

Oh..I forgot. Every 4th stop sign I can add an after meal cigar because he has to fill up that small tank.

Just wondered. I carry a book when I ride with my son, who has a vulcan classic.

I am surprised you don't have him call NORAD to find out where you went.
