So, what's the bhp to weight on the 750 vs the stock 450 on a modern race quad?

A brand new canam 450 production atv claims 43hp at 350lbs.
My old 650 (the sporting class that never was) produces the same.  Which is a little weak considering its about 500lbs

Gsxr750 puts out 120hp

Yeeehaw

You can do anything with a CB750 motor as long as you know what you're doing.
How about a sled / snow mobile.
Honda built a few back in the day, this is the strange looking motor.

I haven't snow-mobiled.  Do they typically use manual or auto transmissions?

They typically use [belt drive] torque convertors, which is basically an automatic.
