what do you think
BDI:
Here's an interesting bit of trivia; below 5252 rpm any engine's torque number will always be higher than its horsepower number, and above 5252 rpm any engine's horsepower number will always be higher than its torque number. At 5252 rpm the horsepower and torque numbers will be exactly the same...
If this is true and I think It Is then I think the torque and horse power figures are bull crap because I know the cr500 turns around 8500 rpm. Physics say It's impossible to make more torque than horse power over 5252 rpm. The higher the rpm is over 5252 rpm the further apart the horse power and torque numbers will be. I got the above quote from this web site http://www.revsearch.com/dynamometer/torque_vs_horsepower.html and there are lots of other info on the web that backs this up. :-P
stewart:
i personaly do not believe these to be true numbers at that cc its either a fabrcation or they could have there tach pulse settings or dyno wheel magnet on wrong setting or some other error and they belive it to be right ps tell them i would like to see a dyno sheet
