It's NRHS and Aaron Wilson. Or Richard Nallin (I think Aaron bought the company for him, but from what I can tell, it's every bit as good as it ever was. They were partners before? Anyway... That sounds about right... Have you taken a peek at the dyno of Aaron's LSR bike? Holy Fn WOW! |

Isn't that around 1350? |

That's nothing, they had a 100" mill pushing well over 200 RWHP and a 72" stock displacement Cyclone making over 120 RWHP. And I know of a Buell Lightning with an 88" engine that bested a new R1 in a head-to-head dyno drag race not too long ago. It is reportedly making an honest 155+ SAE RWHP. Not for the faint of heart. Call Cycle-Rama for more information. |

If you are buying performance parts and stray much beyond either NRHS (Aaron Wilson) or Cycle-Rama (Wes Brown) you are a test pilot. |

Don't forget places like Hoban Brothers and HALS Performance Advantage. Both have solid race teams and Buell knowledge. |

Jersey, let's go ahead and teach them how to fish. And for the Math challenged. 1in. = 2.54cm 1cu = 2.54cm x 2.54cm x 2.54cm = 16.387cc 16.387cc x 82 = 1343.7 |

How about for the really mathematically challenged? Go to http://www.google.com in the search field type (without quotes): "82 cubic inch to cubic centimeter" and hit enter. Result: "82 (cubic inch) = 1343.73925 cubic centimeter" Works for any conversion you need...} (Message edited by CruiSin on March 30, 2005) |

i have an 89 inch sportster, 5 speed, that would be a LOT of fun in an M2 cyclone chassis. |

As is the usual case for an Englishman, what if you're nowhere near Google when you need to know? I remember from Harley model history 61 cubic inch is as near as damn it 1000cc. Remember the XLX61? Then I can pretty much work it out from there in my head Rocket |

302 cubic inches (Ford) = 5 Litres That's about the only conversion I remember - otherwise I have to work it out the slow way every freaking time - 2.54 cm/in |

I've given up on the pencil except for crosswords. Found this simple and easy to use conversion program that converts anything into a different unit of measure, and best of all it is free. http://www.joshmadison.com/software/convert/ |

We use the joshmadison convert.exe at work You can use google.com and do pretty complicated conversions type in 88 cubic inches to cc 88 (cubic inches) = 1 442.06163 cc Or type any other conversion (as if anybody wanted to know): 1200 cubic centimeters to cubic furlongs 1200 (cubic centimeters) = 1.47402399 × 10^(-10) cubic furlongs (ok, I can't do superscripts here) |

Brian Nallin used to be at NRHS.He is now at http://www.revperf.com/ and also carries performance parts for our Buells,that you wont be a test pilot on. NRHS and Cycle-Rama are also top notch places to get your parts,but its good to have a few places to shop at. |

Superscript is easy here... 1.47402399\+{-10} yields... 1.47402399-10 (Message edited by blake on April 02, 2005) |

Thanks Blake. I was worried about presenting my S3's displacement properly in cubic furlongs. |

I'm still wondering about the 82 IN3 139 HP bike and who has it. And what's 139 HP in sled dog power (SDP)? Google didn't have anything for that. |
