"duh, I wasn't the one bring up hp over and over again. It was your rice buddy. I will say it again though Hp is bragging rights but torque gets the job done. I just built a bike that lays out 125ft lbs of torque at 3200rpm. No reason to rev it up to 6000, 9000, 10000, or 12000 it gets the job done at 3200 rpms."
And so what? Is there something inherently great about trolling along at low rpms? It eludes me. Also, as I said, no production V-twin gets anywhere near that.
What exactly do you think rpms are? They are how fast your motor is spinning nothing else. Your question is kind of....well it's a question of ignorance. It doesn't matter how fast your motor is spinning it matters on how fast your bike is moving.
AIH and BIG DOG are production bikes and they are putting out numbers almost equal to that. So you are again wrong. Thanks for playing.
The bosshoss is also a production motorcycle and I will put it up against absolutely any japanese or any other production bike out there on a straight track. In fact you can even supercharge and put nitro on those bikes and it will still smoke them naturally aspirated and it won't get over 3000rpms. So you do understand that lower rpms the less stress and wear there is on a motor right? You als know the lower rpms produce less heat right? The reason those jap bikes are made to rev as high as they do is so they can try and match the raw power of the vtwins.
I am starting to wonder if you know anything about motorcycles beyond what you have learned from gixxer.com.
I should have known I'd find your Harley bashing self on this thread sooner or later. It's ok that trolling along at low RPM's eludes you. It doesn't elude me, I love it. I've ridding for hundreds upon hundreds of miles at a time like that.
I don't get wheelies, stoppies, or weaving in and of traffic at warp 6. That's ok too. We're not all supposed to be the same. This constantly cutting at any taste different than your own is juvenile.
