reliable 200 hp out of 20kg?
« on: February 17, 2015, 08:17:49 am »
or 400 out of 40 as they say there,

sure, no gearbox, but still....

as owners of 50 hp out of 75 kg motors, guess it could be fun.... :)

turns out it's a 1500c.c. turbo triple..... could almost fit in a bike..... just  a bit tall.
but hey, even 2/3's , as a 1000cc / 260 hp twin it could be nice....
