Okay I check Motorcyclist and the 1125 they dyno'd made 129hp and 82 ft/lbs.
A 600RR made 106hp and 45 ft/lbs
There is that better? So your bike "only" makes 20 more horses and 35 more ft/lbs of torque stock... well what was I thinking? You're right in light of this new evidence I declare that it is perfectly acceptable for Buell to race this 1125cc bike against 600s. Heck, a 1098 only dyno's in at 139hp why not just strap an extra 20 lbs onto it and let it race in this class too? |
I knew you'd come around.
