Racing bus? 80mph w/ 1000lbs payload? I have a tourbus, 5200lbs GVW ready to rock and roll. I have enough torque and tall enough gearing to ton-up before redline on the tach. I also have larger brakes. 90MPH is scary on the superslab, even scarier in traffic, much scarier with marginal brakes. Upgrade those binders or put me in your will. pensioner (89 westy syncro with beaucoups torque) |
