Hi guys - it's been a while since I've posted much, but I'm thinking about buying a new America LT. Had an 04 TBA for 7 years, sold it, currently riding a Bonnie. At 6'2" I'm a bit cramped on the SE (otherwise it's an excellent bike).
Sooo...
I've got zero experience with the new design, or the 865cc engine. Is the FI glitchy (the Bonnie is a little tedious at low speeds - are the new TBA's and Speedys?)?
My issue with the 790 (stock) was power. Does the 865 (stock) have adequate power for mountains / hills like we have in Idaho?
I read on the other forum that the new 2013 /2014s won't go beyond about 80-90 mph (they attributed it to the rev limiter) - huh??? Say it ain't so!
My 04 was rock solid reliable, how are the new ones?? Thanks in advance!
