So....with peak power on a 748S at say 10,000 or 10,500 and the increased drag quadrupling (although the pies/donuts-eaten coefficeint of +1.6 should be applied in some cases)this implies that at 11,000 rpm you could actually be going backwards. Yet if we down gear the bike so that at any given road speed the revs are higher we should reach terminal velocity sooner..............OK one more glass of chardonnay and i'm outtahere.
