Torque of the 2.5 is nice, espesh on the motorway in 6th at 80.
Exhaust is too quiet as get too much engine/valvetrain noise....I remember when my classic was like this.

Handling is superb 'out of the box' and very solid/planted, makes the classic feel positively agricultural...never thought I'd say that.

It will be getting remapped but not until I can afford a 3" decat and RCM induction kit.

I test drove a Bob Rawle re-mapped one back to back with this one (well within an hour) and I was really suprised how the mapped one went over the Yorkshire dales I was testing it on.....so I have seen the potential
