Bear, or anyone else for that matter. What is the name of the restaurant in Belfair that is a good place to have breakfast?
That's "Jimmy D's" on the right as you come into Belfair from Gorst just past Mickey D's.

Horsepower is defined as work done over time.
The exact definition of one horsepower is 33,000 lb.ft./minute.
Put another way, if you were to lift 33,000 pounds one foot over a period of one minute, you would have been working at the rate of one horsepower.
In this case, you'd have expended one horsepower-minute of energy.

What horsepower means is this:
In Watt's judgement, one horse can do 33,000 foot-pounds of work every minute. So, imagine a horse raising coal out of a coal mine as shown above. A horse exerting 1 horsepower can raise 330 pounds of coal 100 feet in a minute, or 33 pounds of coal 1,000 feet in one minute, or 1,000 pounds 33 feet in one minute. You can make up whatever combination of feet and pounds you like. As long as the product is 33,000 foot-pounds in one minute, you have a horsepower.

Just a tidbit of info. I'm still looking for the specific questions you guys were talking about.
But I can't find that answer..........dang it..............

Here is one of the pages I've read through.
Maybe somebody smarter than me can figure out the answer. I know nothing about this stuff.
HorsePower

Ok, I'm tired of reading already.
Your engine will produce the same hosepower and torque no matter the weight. Makes sense.........
But the more weight, the longer it takes to get going. Makes sense......

That's all from me. Pretty smart I am huh....hehehehehehehehe
Not

sounds like power to weight ratio would be a better measure in this case

my bike weighs lets say 400lbs,,,,and we'll chalk me in at 260lbs (hence the 660 sticker on the side of the bike [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] )

85hp / 660lbs = .128 horsy per pound

in my dreams maybe [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

so,,,if i gained 7.81 lbs i would have to add 1 more horsy
