I didn't mean that the bike shouldn't be capable of 70 mph, if you need to use the freeway at all, your bike should be able to cruise at 70 which means a top speed closer to 85. I just meant that as a motorcyclist I am more likely to choose winding 55mph roads than freeways. This was reflected in the Mid Ohio challenge last year, as we only took the freeway for about 8 miles. Craig seems to want to be able to get 100mpg on a long ride averaging 70mph, as seen by his Las Vegas to Barstow Challenge. 177mi all 70mph, and they were speeding part of the time. this seems to me more like rushing to get somewhere than a nice ride.
