[QUOTE="Groo, post: 320581, member: 287"] Couple things... 82 in a 35 probably would have been pretty spendy, no matter where you live. I'm constantly amazed how effortlessly FJRs (and most similar sized bikes) will climb mountains/hills/inclines. The motor is so understressed, you almost don't realize how much altitude you're gaining, versus being in an automobile where the engine starts to strain, and if it's an automatic, will downshift to try and keep your speed up. The fact that he had it buried and couldn't catch you was nothing... you could have pulled away effortlessly if you had wanted to. [/QUOTE]
