If their headwork is so good that they can pull 105hp out of a 1250cc(just under 80ci) why cant they get more than 110hp out of a 103ci????

I used to drag race bikes when I was younger. Had a few bang-ups (on street, not track) and gave it up. These days my wife would leave me if I got a bike but if I could, the biggest long and low thing Suzuki makes would do me fine....

Have you seen the ones they turbo charge?? One was claiming 320 hp. I don't know if that is possible but good god how do you hang on when you get on it hard if it is true??

they have turbo ones that make over the 500hp mark.. i wouldnt even know where to begin! scary just thinking about it.. the kawai 1200's are just as fast as the busa, but the aftermarket isnt really as big as it is for the busa.. although i really like the zx12-r, busa is my next bike for sure..

Superchargers make the most HP and provide the best 1/4 mile times, at least they did when I knew about such things. As far as hanging on when HP gets real high the trick is in seat style, you need one that won't let you go back, and wheelie bars. I don't much care for street, just want to go too fast for 1/4 mile and keep the front end on the ground.
I should leave this thread, makes me dream of things that would cause me big trouble...

seems like most of the top bikes are spraying.. (harley's anyways) japs are turbo's..
The buells have jumped up alot in the past couple years, i had a tough time trying to decide if i wanted the sporty or the buell... coming from the factory with 110 horsepower is pretty good.. but then i figured, since the sporty and buell share the same motor, just differnt heads.. why not make a fast sporty? and i did just not fast enough anymore!
