Re: New Exhaust?

I know this is off topic, but I was comparing the specs for the Johnny Pag with a few other bikes and came up with these numbers.

That Johnny Pag 300cc motor is a water cooled 2 cylinder DOHC 4 valve/cylinder with a 10/1 compression ratio and two carbs and puts out the following with premium gas:

Power: 23.8 HP @ 6500 RPM
Torque :18.5 Nm @ 6500 RPM

This compares to the S40 652cc that has a 1 cylinder SOHC, 4 valve 8.5/1 comp.ratio and 1 carb and uses regular gas:

Power: 30.00 HP @ 5400 RPM
Torque: 45.50 Nm @ 3400 RPM

Our little GZ250's Air-cooled 249 cc single cylinder, SOHC, four valves have the following :

Power: 20.1 hp @ 8,000 rpm,
Torque: 18.7 Nm @ 7,000 rpm

So it would appear that the extra 50cc's, an extra cylinder and carb and higher compression of the Jonny Pag nets you almost 4 HP, but a bit less torque as compared to the GZ, albeit at lower rpms. The S40 is a torque monster compared to either one of course. Fascinating... right!
