On a 250 about 65 is comfy but they will push on to around 75

Yeah as above the cm is pretty happy at about 60 - 65, handle really well for a factory custom, maybe because their quite low, fast turning circle too, if you get used to the wide bars their really nice to ride

only ever had quick goes on a couple of old brits, but you'll probably find the japs a bit revvier and the powers usually a bit further up the rev range. our lad owned a triumph 500 twin (briefly) and always said performance wise it was about on a level with his old 250 superdream.

They do British bike tick over 500 reves and jap about 1200 so no wonder it feels like it's reveing it nuts off . Am sure I will get use to after and when I get it running ok.
