ZXR250 BHP.

Just out of interest, what's it worth for a run on the dyno?

Hmm I would gladly tell you if I knew, but I'm buying the bike from them and they offer a dyno on all there bikes so you can see what it can do, I suspect it would be around the 50$ mark though.

Seems to be a pretty snazzy dyno though, gives you a good dose of info.

Red Barons dyno is reasonably conservative across the board. Most 250s Ive seen figures for, there , run 31-35 ps. Seen a ZZR1100 run 134ps...and a FZR1000 run 138!

My FZR had about 130hp at the wheel, just lacked the torque.

What does 'PS' stand for?

[カワサキキド]

PS stands for "Pferdestaerke", which is just German for "horsepower".

PS stands for "Pferdestaerke", which is just German for "horsepower".

To explain further, its sort of a unused way of measuring power - it uses different maths to get the figure compared to the traditional HP figuring.

1 PS = 75 kp·m/s = 735.49875 W

(Pferdestärke = horse strength)
