Hey all, I'm looking pretty hard at getting a 300 In a few months, hopefully by then there will be a few used or the price will go down a bit! 
I have always wanted a sport bike but I know it is smart to start small, and I think the 300 will fit the bill perfectly! However, I am a bit concerned about the power it has for long distance riding. I will be going from Houston to Austin every other weekend on I-10 where the speed limit is 75. However, in the real world people cruise at 80-85+, I just wonder if it has enough power to keep up and even pass at those speeds? I don't want to be screaming at the top of my lungs as I try and pass someone!
Sorry for the ignorance, I just want to make sure I have my bases covered before diving into this bike!
Thanks in advance for the info, hopefully everything works out and I will have a new / used 300 in a few months!
