What's the big deal. It still has 4 left.

The MidExpress guys saw how much less the new 300 Yamahas weigh so they figured if they dropped one Vrod off....

I wonder if that engine will be put on another midnight express. Because I guarantee you that those Verados are not registered yet.

Oh the horror!

5 x 350hp = Gluttony. IMO, serves them right "pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered!"
