That's 19% more weight but only 4% more power. No wonder he got smoked. A 19% bigger engine would be 595cc, so I was right about the X2 needing a 600 to match a Sp 500 for power/weight ratio. There's no replacement for displacement. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] The 500 X2 would be more in the class of a Sp 400.

Dang! purchased 2 500's. Your both lucky.......! I asked the same question a few months ago.


I'm gonna go ahead and ask, how many hp were you kickin' on the honeymoon? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Don't be afraid to answer, were all about torque and power here (and traction, but I don't think you want traction in a honeymoon scenerio ) ?
