Worse than Crack eh??? The FJ grunt is better than having to drop a gear or two to get your Kookaloo on...
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Hehehe, yeah she gets to you pretty quick. Being used to 6 gears on the Duc I wasn't sure how 5 would be on the highway but at 75-80 she's just cruising along smooth as glass and triple d's are just a moment away. Here's a shot of my stable.

I think the wheels and brakes on that particular Duc will straight swap with the FJ.

I've heard stories that say that whacking the throttle in 5th gear at 70 mph will get you an indicated 145 mph in a very short span of time. At least that's what the stories say...  :unknown::unknown:

Maybe if I have a sudden lapse in judgement and sell the Duc.  :wacko1:

I can't vouch for 145 (yet) but 115 was way easy.  :smile:
