remal 85 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 And not bad for a 1ltr Supercharged bike!!!! Had my bike dyno'ed 2 weeks ago. was stock but have added power commander 5, DNA air filter and flash of the ECU to remove lots of restrictions from my Kawasaki H2. Which included reduced fueling from 8k-14k to reduce the top end power. Limit power in first 4 gears and removed the top speed limiter of 186. WOW what a difference. rolling 60MPH in 4th and just roll on the power and all it wants to do is wheelie. I asked Tim the Dyno guy I don't want mega power just smooth running and better low speed throttle response. The huge gain from the standard 195-205BHP jump was mostly down to the power being reduced via the ECU. shows how strong the engine is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

remal 85 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 Lack of Torque puts me off wanting to put a bike engine into my 7. I know people who have bike engine kitcars and are amazing on track but thats it. not fun on the motorways or doing anything more than 100 miles in a day. Most I know with bike engines sell them after only a year or so. 1 Lauren reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tareim 343 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 get another one of those engines and then turn it into a v engine, torque problem solved Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
remal 85 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 241BHP is fun in the right car. even a lightweight 7. But having that power in a 240KG bike with fluids is just a riot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk i'm a petrol head through and through but the acceleration of a Sport Bike let alone the H2 is just out of this world. I know the you can't use this on the road but a quick squirt and WOW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
