Yeah, but they handle like shit....too light in the ass end.
They should consider adding maybe 25...26 pounds to the chassis to stablize it.

Pretty impressive numbers.

My Firebolt still makes more torque though :: grin ::

yea, but it's still just a kawasuki...............

A new 08 Yamaha R1 only made 161 HP at the wheel on the same dyno, my 06 ZX10R still has more than that! :)

[mayhem]

yea, but the r1 can actually use all that hp cause it handles 10 times better than the kawi...

[albinohickey]

It will need every bit of that HP to sell, because that is one ugly motorcycle...
(And I'm a lover of all things 2-wheels. Still doesn't make the new 10R and 1000RR beauty queens)
