Author Message   Thurstonbuell Posted on Tuesday, February 12, 2008 - 12:43 pm:        I've read several reviews on the 1125R that states " Buell claims output of 146 horsepower at 10,500 rpm, measured at the crank, and 82 foot-pounds of torque at the rear wheel." Does anyone know what the horsepower measured at the rear wheel is ? Is horsepower usually measured at the crank on motorcycles ?   Sub65chris Posted on Tuesday, February 12, 2008 - 01:02 pm:        http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/290 431/330744.html?1200506338   Thurstonbuell Posted on Tuesday, February 12, 2008 - 01:10 pm:        Sub65 , that was fast , much appreciated !   Dalton_gang Posted on Tuesday, February 12, 2008 - 01:47 pm:        Not to get anyones hopes up but don`t forget about the "boost factor". I know that nothing has been proven yet but I`d sure like to think that the ram air intake will help add a pony or two when up to speed. I`m sure that every dyno run was made with a big ass fan running in front of the bike but I don`t think it`s the same as out in the wild.
