I now recall the other thread but didn't see any dyno #'s posted...maybe they are in those 7 or so pages.

Regardless...nice #'s.

Yea I know, but still pretty impressive!

If guys like Smileyman had had their way, sport bike development would have stopped at the '77 Honda 750 Super Sport! Shit some guys turned down their noses when Indian produced a bike that would do 60mph. "Who needs to go that fast, anyway?"

Power without the ability to translate it down to the tarmac = last place.
