benbarnesatl wrote:the more horsepower, the faster it accelerates, and the more powerful the bike is, am i right? same thing with cylinders, the more, the faster/better? i am thinking about getting a job at a auto shop and work for free just to learn how to take apart/put together and engine, as well as learn everything about it.. but i dont know if places would let me do that.

In the MSF course will they teach em stuff like that?


hp's - true

cyllinders... Generally means a higher top speed but not necessarily better accel. Afaik my 2 cyl er6 will beat an xj6 (4 cyl) in accel off the line.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

How fast a bike is, mostly is in direct relation to its power to weight ratio.
You could have a bike that has only 2 cylinders like the tss rs500gp which is a 2 stroke in a rs250 aprilia frame. And because its so light and the engine produces around 120hp and the bike only weighs 108kg fully race prepped. Its power to weight ratio will far out do any stock 1000cc inline 4 cylinder supersport. And therefore even though it has less cylinders and less power, it will still outrun the more powerful bike easily. Due to its weight.

Its all in the power to weight ratio.

All the more reason to hit the gym and lose weight -_-'

Quick (silly) Q - Race prep'd simply means natural weight + fluids weight right? Or does it include the avg rider weight?
