And not strangely one watt equals 0.7375621 pound-feet/second. There for you don't own a motorcycle you own a generator or a motor conected backwards.

So, because tq can be converted to watts, my bike is a generator?
Watts can be converted to btu, is my bike a furnace as well? |

I want a nice mix of both HP and torque, whether they be real or imaginary.

Nothing feels better than twisting the throttle and feeling the hand of God push you until your eyes tear and you see the Angels begging you to back off....

Really, then why do MotoGP, Formula 1, and nearly all major motorsport series feature vehicles with a much greater ratio of HP to torque than anything available on the street? Because they have to build engines that keep breathing and keep revving in order to acheive higher top speeds.
If torque was all that was necessary, they'd be using tractor engines. Last edited by Homeslice; 11-27-2009 at 12:55 AM.. |
