hmmm. well that seems to lead us back to the discussion about HP *needs*- tho HP seems also (in this instance) to be a by-product of the new motor, with the intended end result being reduced emissions... i guess the bikes have gotten generally a bit heavier, too as of late. will overall bike weight increase with the advent of the new liquid cooled motor?
also:
think folks nowadays are riding farther & faster than ever before?
was the final drive on the Oilheads as bullet proof as on the Airheads & Ks?
Actually, the R1200s got significantly LIGHTER than the 1100s and 1150s. And the final drive problems seemed to begin with the 1150s, which had essentially the same design as the 1100s.
