I love my Americas. They run great (well, one of them RAN great), handle awesome, have tons of character, look beautiful, and they're a rolling conversation piece. But they aren't high performance machines. Some will disagree. That's fine, but I'm being realistic here.....

My first America (07) has the stock airbox with a K&N unifilter and the snorkel still in place. The mufflers are long TORs slashcuts. It will cruise ALL DAY at 90 mph. I've got 18 & 42 sprockets on at present and have run her up to about 70+ into 3rd gear {nicely quick enough to get attention....wanted or otherwise} If I go easy on it it will push 50mpg. But I may be running it a little lean as I haven't rejetted for the TORs.
