Depends, everyones idea of enough power is very different. Some people are fine with 25hp, others can not even have anything less than 100hp. This bike is about 55hp give or take a few and about 50 torque. I can easily cruise at freeway speeds of 80mph+ all day and it still has enough in it to pass people with ease. I have ridden a few similar sized cruisers and this one is the quickest I've ridden yet which is why I got it. An 883 sportster for example is similar power but weighs about 100 pounds more. So when I rode the two back to back the guzzi both handles better and feels faster not to mention the guzzi can hold about 3 more gallons of gas! In my opinion it has enough power for sure. But if you are able to get the newer bike with more power then why not? Or get the older one and just upgrade to the 850cc kit later down the road. For me all I am doing is the pipes and a tune as the bike has plenty of power to feel exciting and I have ridden 150hp bikes....
hi and thank for the video. The exhausts sound really nice. What are they?
They are just some generic no name slip ons. I can send a link if you want.
@@Anything_With_An_Engine Yes please, that'd be great
Do you think the bike has enough power?, the 2021 verison makes a tad bit more power I think.
