    Some motard guys turned up and decided it was a bit wet to ride so took pictures instead. Not many people keen that day for some reason, I was trying to see how hard you can push through standing water, turns out that there is not much difference in turn one exit speed between all good and front wheel aquaplanes.

    DIN rear wheel horse power recorded on a DynoJet that records about 42rwhp for Av's std 2007 RS.

    These are the highest documented readings that I know of.

    Anything else higher posted on the ESE thread is probaly graphs from our new toy, the EngMod2T simulator which suggest the development potential and direction to take.

    The simulator gives crank hp, you have to deduct workmanship and transmission losses to get a realistic picture of rwhp, whats 39 crank hp on the simulator will be less in reality but probably more than 30 rwhp.

    And what I am realy confident about, is the curve will be pretty much what the simulator suggests.

    Over the next few weeks, we (Team ESE) are going to see how close we can get to making this simulation in reality, soon 30+ rwhp might become the norm for good strokers, like 20+ was a while ago.

    The Engine is in the frame I will post a couple more photo's after I have cleaned up the welds and painted the ugly bits.
    I now need to find a front sprocket to match the pitch on the rear, fit the forks, find a plastic tank to fit under the tank cover, fit the exhaust, find a carb, buy some bars ( am Thinking flat ) and a list that seems endless. How do people finish a bucket??
