Hi

In new Performance Bike Magazine is the comparison of the new 1000 class supersport bikes...In dyno test R1 has most hp from the rear wheel

Honda 146.6hp
Kawasaki 147.7hp
Suzuki 144.4hp
YAMAHA 147.9hp

BUT THE MOST INTERESTING IS THE THRUST MEASURED FROM THE REAR WHEEL...

R1 has clearly most power at 3rd gear...see also other gears..not bad at all !!! Just think wheelies...

Juerg, the thrust curves in PB are not the same as taking a dynograph and moving the lines so that the hp at 13000 rpms is compared to the hp at 12000 rpms. a thrust curve compares tractive force v. speed and a dynograph compares hp v. rpm. apples and oranges.
