    4k is not bad. I am in the same range on my S3T on the highway. No issues at all.

    I don't do any really long trips, but I do go to a rally about 2 hours South of here every year. I run 90, non stop, all the way (where possible of course). And then putt around a field for 2 days in the heat with crazy people lol. It'll handle 4k just fine.

    I've done long rides. I found a throttle lock indispensable on long rides.

    Yes, A throttle lock for the stiff Buell throttle, but NOT one of those cheap paddle things. One tried to kill me in the corners!!

    I have all my ASE certifications, and have worked as a tech for about a year now.

    Not to down play your knowledge or skill by any means, really I mean that. Glad to see young smart people becoming techs! But for the fellas who've never taken an ase test... if you do a bit out studying on the subject you're testing for, maybe buy a pretest, and you're good at tests you'd be surprised what you can get an ase cert. In!

    He's right!!!! If you know much about cars there pretty easy test actually. But I was just saying I'm not worried about doing repairs and that was an easy way to say it.
