What’s the calculation for power loss at a given altitude compared to power at sea level? 

$69,900

Having borrowed one for a short time in San Antonio with a stick, it still felt too slow.  Again, assessment is needed.  Probably requires a test drive.

The 4 cylinder version of these were slow, and scary slow with the automatic in a busy city.  It did OK with fuel mileage, but you’d have to really assess your normal driving routines before you commit to it.

Winnar!

Harsh.  Sympathies man.  Relationships make you do strange things from time to time for sure. 

The spirit is willing, but the wallet and skills are weak. 

Yamaha Tenere 700.

Having owned an Amigo, I’d skip the v6 and stick with the i4.  There was plenty of power for pretty much everything that falls into a non-extreme envelope, and the v6 doesn’t get you enough to justify how thirsty it was.  If you need more, swap something in like the 2.3 ecoboost. 

In fairness, there’s a shedload more open space in AK than most places that require inspection.

This was my thought.  If they’d said “Couldn’t go around a corner”, I’d have understood that. 

First Gear: Ducati is the standout in that group Ferdinand listed. Perhaps a merger between Ducati and HD to compete with Piaggio? They’d need a third and possibly fourth to actually make smaller motorcycles/scooters and be a full-line manufacturing group. 

This is a pretty typical thing if you have a truck model beginning with the letter “F” or van starting with the letter “E”.

Don’t worry, they’ll blowoff soon.

Totally. PCH is fun, even in an econobox. Fuel is eye-wateringly expensive though. Be prepared if you drive something thirsty or anything enthusiastically.

Three speed column shift, and a bench seat in the front. 

“Money”. 

It’s OK to be wrong. 

My gut tells me batteries. Particularly with mesh stuff, I suspect the BT radio is both cranked to 11 and chattering a lot more to move data between all the riders in the mesh.
