I installed some of the new muffler bearings on my R, they work great except you have to be careful of anyone riding behind you!! Them suckers really hurt when they break apart and come flying out of the end of the silencer at full throttle!!!

To CornDog and others ref C'Dale 61 hp.
I heard the same rumour myself from my local C'Dale dealer and 61 hp. was the number he used. He referred to a drag bike, and I assumed like you that he was referring to a stock bike with a factory developed fuel mapping. However when I read about the Glamis shootout, and the 454 (I think) Cannondale, maybe this was the bike being referred to. The fact that this same rumour is being perpetrated by more than one dealer would make one suspect that Cannondale itself is the source.

nice! reeds on a DS,
what alot of people don;t know about the scrambler 400, if you change the timing you can get 10 more HP,
i installed hotter cams in mine, and i also have fuel injected brake lines, they are sweet, I put a dry stump oil conversion and hydrolic transmission to.

So I found a way to boost my little 250 to 61 hp just by adjusting my new feul injected carburetor. WOW And I was clocked at 105 mph but then that guy on the DS flew past me. Just ask my dealer they will tell ya. Oh I cant wait to get those reeds and that powerband.

Current horsepower figures for a Honda Superbike RC 51 in race trim is 175 hp, from a 999 cc engine. This translates into 2.87 hp. per cubic inch.
By nature single cylinder four strokes cannot be as efficient as two cylinder four strokes due to inertial losses between firing strokes (multi cylinder engines fire on every revolution, but singles only fire once per two revolutions.)The target best # for single cylinder naturally aspirated engines is 2.2 hp/cu. inch. Doing the math for Cannondales drag bike reported as a 454 cc modified engine, the hp. figure would be 60.95 hp. based on 2.2 hp. / cu. inch. Technology lives!
