That got me wondering about the power on this new Crosstourer from Honda. It shares the 1200cc V4 with the new VFR. I took plots of its torque curve with that of several big supersports and overlaid them The curves are all from Sport Rider mag, so presumably the same dyno for reasonable comparisons. The VFR peaks at 142hp and 81 ft-lbs of torque. The 2010 Gixxer 1K is 156hp and 76 ft-lbs. Fairly close but look at the torque curves on the low end.Originally Posted by CYCLE_MONKEY

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
--Thomas Jefferson
