well I ride with mixed up group of riders, we have a 2000model 1200 sportster, and 87 magna, and a cbr 600. now the savage is a torquey little sucker with that great big cylinder but the hd and the magna can eat it up. when the hd and the magna are messing around in town they can both get up to around 80mph between stoplights, the savage just isn't going to do that. and then on the open road when they take off their is no way I can catch them unless they wreck. they both take their bikes up to 120mph without a bit of hesatation. someday when I'm rich I'm going to order a big dog then I might be in the running with them.
don't get me wrong I like the little bike it does really well in traffic and I like the looks of it and for the money (I'm poor) its a good little bike but thats what it is "a little bike"
