pipe and map helps a bit. I think 7hp, but I dont have the data right in front of me.
In all honesty I am quite sure you guys are not revving this thing enough. The gears are short, but they aint that short.
I had to do some serious runs in second gear till I hit the rev limiter when I first got it just to get to know the power band. I was short shifting big time prior to that.
If I had to guess Id say Im shifting at about 90% of the powerband though I have no way to support that claim. I screw up and hit the rev limiter occasionally, but I also fall off the nike sometimes as well, it's operator error.
As an indication: On a wide open blistering run through the gears, if I shift from 1st to second I will stay in second with the throttle pinned for maybe 90'-120' then hit third. That's a real rough stab and if you want me to nail it down I can measure it this weekend on both pavement and dirt.
That should at least get you ballparked into holding a gear long enough to use the power band
Sorry for the sillyness earlier, it just seemed almost an outrageous joke that someone would consider these bikes anemic as you were stating. So I didnt take you seriously.
My bad
