I have a 99 Katana and last summer I ran cages into the ground. Most stangs and camaros don't bother running me I get the little imports with the $100.00 SS muffler trying to race all the time.. This year my bike is running like crap (didn't prep it right for the winter). What I am trying to say is, bikes aren't like cars. They aren't very forgiving.. If he was missing just a bit or he's jets where clogged you might be able to run him 60 to 130 on the highway with a 13 stang but if his bike was 100% even a older Kat would pull on you.. 60 to 70ph on a 450lb bike.. Do the math hp to weight..
