    Well I got most of my info from Tech1 so he has covered it already but so far no one has mentioned the use of an OD transmission. That means as said above that tire size and rear ratio may put the rpm range in the OD gear down at 2000 rpm or even lower so head flow needs to be good at low rpm for cruising. Also no one added my usual knee-jerk reference on the bench flow of common heads:
