As for the power, I find the CBR250R to be adequate up to about 75mph, then a little tedious from there to 85mph. However, if most of you are like myself, 98% of your riding is 75mph and below,...

@Adrian: If it's your 1st bike, you're probably still getting used to the nuances of how it behaves. 7k RPM is where I notice a change in the feel and voicing of the bike, too, but it's not anything...

Lightbulb The Best Article on Horsepower, Torque, and Gearing I've Ever Read

For riding jeans, Sartso (http://www.sartso.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=106&Itemid=134) is pretty awesome. They look just like regular, fashionable, jeans.

It's because Nickelback is absurdly corny. They're like a walking cliche'. You could make a "Not Another..." movie about them - "Not Another Rock Band", haha.
