REAR WHEEL HP

[IMFASTTOO]

Sooo....

TFC 29,000 USD
Diavel 1260 S 23,000 USD

You need to throw more money at a bike that already costs more to give it a chance?

At that price you can buy a Kwaka H2 with 207hp, easily and cheaply flash the ECU to 250ish

WE are talking about a pipe and retune no big deal for 50 HP its a bargain

I really hope I am wrong in my assumption that the ECU is going to be a problem. Though it would make it harder for me to hold off buying one,

I suspect if anyone will get access to the ecu it will probably be Bob due to their work with the streamliner.

Ahh, I already had hit the quote button, but @Steel beat me to it, rider weight affects the ratio more on a lighter bike than a heavier one, definitely.

[B]After reading this I think the best course of action is to go on a serious personal weight gain program.
It seams sensible and prudent.[/B]

I guess you could, although I’m not sure that’s exactly a straight either/or decision for most people. If you’re buying hp by the dollar, then maybe? From my point of view, I saw the TFC, I wanted one, and I got one. There’s not a lot more to it. Clearly I could have bought an H2, or frankly pretty much anything else I wanted, but I didn’t want those. If I ‘throw’ money at it, that’ll be because I want to as well, I won’t be thinking, oh crap, I could have bought a Panigale for this money, because I don’t want one of those in the first place.

It’s actually not that big a deal Steve. Do it once and the mystery is all gone and you’ll have the tooling.
