Ducati race team!!!

[White trash]

I don't wanna get into this horsepower "mines got more than yours/ducatis are wicked" type debate, however, my K7 Thousand got dynoed today. After the pipe was fitted.

If a 749 V-Twin (regardless of manufacture) makes one thirty at the tread, what d'ya reckon a new Jappa thousand made?

[Sparky Bills]

155-170...?

I would say that Trashy has a point to prove so I'm going to say 140HP.

Is there a prize for the closest?

Serious answer:
Enough!

Speculating answer:
I'd reckon about 175.67 hp @ 12243 rpm

It aint never enough power!!!


Remember when the thousands came out? Everybody said they were too grunty for the road. And yet those of us stupid enough to buy them anyway, and could make them boogy, would all say we wanted a bit more in places. At the hill climb I was on quite possibly the quickest bike there, but comin through the flat out section half way up, I was screaming at my bike to get off it's arse.

Anyhoo, rant over, spill it Jimmy, what's the new toy pumpin through the tread?

I knew that would draw a reaction.

Enough for mere mortals, is never enough for immortal Mairs!

We aint immortal, we just refuse to recognise mortality at all.

Worked bloody well for you lot so far I must say!
Can you teach me that someday?

[k14]

It's simple mate.

Ya know that part of you that thinks, "I should back off here, this is stupid"? Ignore it. Self preservation is just silly, there are other people out there to worry about you, so just dont do it yourself.

He's at the track employing the new ponys now mate. Ya wont hear from him till sunday at the earliest.

[Riff Raff]

Yeah and I forgot to ask him in the brief moment we saw each other before my night shifts. Only saw each other long enough for me to admire the new pipe.
