    Rob, the GSX1100G uses a GSXR1100 eng tuned for a little more torque than a GSXR1100... Wouldn't think power was the reason for less jacking than the others.

        He was talking about a GS850...which is not that powerful.
        1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

        2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.
