I've seen the results at the track dude. 50 hp is a motorized bicycle. Or are you riding the 883 with 46 hp? Sure, you can get the front wheel off the ground in first gear if you put enough teeth on the rear sprocket - but then you top out at 102 mph /* snicker */ That ain't even close to a fast ride. But you think half of the "experts" on this thread couldn't handle your ride. Buddy, you have delusions of grandeur.

And coming from a "engineer" (note the quotes) that thinks the actual equation relating horsepower to torque is just a bunch of hooey I don't think you have much credibility. I hope you take math and physics a little more seriously in your jet engine work. LOL

Harley riders on their speed machines! Seriously, you never see them after the first turn.

There’s a whole lot more to that torque horsepower relationship than your simplistic equation in post #30 though and you know it, especially dealing with engines. No observations about the flat track comment I made though or the article I posted for your benefit. The article as I pointed out blows your argument and credibility out the window. Everything else is just misdirection on your part. I’ve been riding since 1971. I quite frankly don’t give a fig what you ride. I’ve ridden some 15 different bikes over the years. I’m not easily impressed with BS.
