[QUOTE="bluesdog, post: 918058, member: 25896"] Hi Sean Welcome to the forum, and to the feejer! Sadly, you have posted your not unreasonable question on a Friday, which is a day when less-than-critical questions are typically responded to with light-hearted and often irrelevant humour. Please don't be too annoyed! :unsure: Seriously, to obtain minimum (best) drag-race times it's considered best to shift slightly after peak torque/hp, for pretty much any vehicle. Please note that the FJR accelerates very nicely indeed, but really it is a sport tourer, and is designed and best suited for semi-spirited riding on twisty roads and long-distance touring. :bike: [/QUOTE]
