    I hate the mvx with a passion Camshafts? They spin round and round and give boyracers some bragging rights, eg; I have four cams, now suck my winky. Even though our race car has one cam and makes around 1800hp...the more cams you have the cooler you are

    the hyosung has 36hp (my one) over 170 (wet) -- so 1 / 4.2

    power to weight the hyosung has more power to weight

    but the 150 will probably faster in the corners.

    ... doesnt that mean that the hyo has 1 hp per 4.2 kgs where as the 150 has 1 per 3.7.... meaning the 150 has a better power to weight??

    bearing in mind a 1 to 1 is awesome!

    the smaller the 2nd number the better

    Isn't it just
    power/weight

    Therefore
    the 150 (26hp) 19.39kW/98kg = 0.198kW/kg
    the hyosung (36hp) 26.85kW/170kg = 0.158kW/kg

    That would mean the 150s have a higher power to weight by your numbers (as 0.198 is a larger number than 0.158)
    Though I think the RG's are more than 98kg

    But it would appear that you are wrong with your numbers anyway (who would have thought?)

    http://www.motorbikes.be/en/Suzuki_R...amma_1998.aspx
    RG 150 1998
    Power = 37hp
    Weight = 122kg (dry)

    http://www.bikez.com/motorcycles/hyo...250_r_2009.php
    GT250R 2009
    Power = 27.8hp
    Weight = 171kg (dry)
    Would appear you got your HP's mixed up huh?

    Holy crap, the RG is lighter yet more powerful and still 100cc less. Oh well, that's a two stroke...


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.
