Small engine curves
scoobyis2cool - 23/2/05 at 11:06 AM

I know this is a bit of an unusual request (seeing as everyone likes to use the biggest engine they can) but does anyone know where I can find power and torque curves for bike engines with a maximum capacity of 610cc? We're currently choosing our university race team engine and the curves would be really helpful.

Thanks,

Pete

Maybe try the R6 Forum for some dyno graphs etc? Id imagine there are similar sites for all the other 600 class bikes too.

very tricky indeed. we were looking a couple of years back for our fs car, but found nothing. ended up putting it on the dyno ourselves and seeing what came out. times may have changed and something may have meen published. know it sounds obvious but try going into dealership and asking for sales literature on bike with your engine. we got some results but not for the engine we were running!
good luck

Thanks for the help, I've just found THIS SITE, which has stacks of dyno charts on loads of bikes, could be useful for people choosing their engines.

Cheers
