Good to see you guys are paying attention. :yes:

Actually I don't know what it makes. It goes on a dyno after the 2-hour. Must be some worried people out there if you believed that. Wobbly reckons 37 at the crank but I don't see it.

Maybe the poll should have been "At What HP Does The Clutch Let Go"..........

so that run would have been 27 as it was half way between the 26 and 28 lines

if you trust the blurry screen :)

Could this be the first Bucket to 30 rwhp.........

geez id hate to have a 29hp bucket, you'd have to win everytime because you have over double the horse power of 90% of the feild.

Yeah I've thought about the embarrasment side of things. I'm working on excuses and have a small list of plausible reasons for not winning. The best and most believable is that "I'm" old and slow. It'd be interesting to see Dave Manuell or Gazza on it.

be even more interesting seeing at taupo, becasue at mt wellington a bike of that power is like doing a marathon around your washing line.

Right up to the point where he follows you onto the front straight or sweeper and then clears off like your bike just stopped.

Spent a fun evening assisting Speedpro with his bike, but ran out of fuel before we had finished, red line 32mm carb, blue line 34mm flat slide.

30+ rwhp is Ohooooo so close......

Ok protest. He has obviously gained horsepower buy altering the stroke of his engine. Kidding kidding. Fantastic results that will keep everyone in their sheds slaving over there buckets to try get close to that.

Can gaurantee that this run was done on Monday night and witness by TZ350, Chambers, myself and of course Mike (Speedpro) was on the bike. The results will speak for themselves on the track. The bike screems. Roll on Taupo:woohoo:

Might be able to pull some strings to dyno my FXR for a comparison? (previously dynoed at triplezees at 13.2hp :woohoo: watch out 2 strokers)

Hi Kel, yes it would be good to get a graph of your FXR for comparison......

We think that it's not so much the outright hp but the shape and width of the power curve that gives the FXR's the advantage at Mt Welly.

And we might be about to prove that hp alone is not enough to win races there.......

Is there going to be a pool for how long it will last? (I have no idea!)

Yes 29 hP out of a Bucket is a bit out there......... no bets on how long it will last

his last engien was 8 years with a big BIG BANG! at the end

my guess is not so long this time (but it will be hard to beat the bang from the last engine)
