Just curious....why so little power out of 2.3L? The torque is tremendous...the hp merely ok.

There must be some big limitations with that engine...

THE STOCK R3 makes 120 rwhp the kit doubles that this is a cruiser and we didnt try for max power but we offer a more agressive setup that makes 300RWHP if you wanna little more push ITS a lot of fun as the thing makes power everywhere instant passing power and its fun messin with the sport bikes We are working on the all out version for the race guys

It's not a rev'er. Stocker makes peak torque at 2500 or so. It has a 4+ inch bore and a 3.6 stroke. Probably doesn't want to rev much past 7500, I'd guess. Sounds like fun though.

REV LIMIT 9000 153ftlbstq at 2500 and 191tq at 5800 this thing is a blast to ride you dont have to downshift to pass just turn the throttle and your gone- it is the ultimate power cruiser muscle bike and its as smooth as a GOLD WING and does great wheelies too

A guy here brought one to the track, had some mods done to it.........., I sat on it........OMG

They are a TANK.

It still ran 9s at 1000ft, and he left like he would from a stoplight almost........., I mean really, how do you "launch" a 800lb or more streetbike.........

I was impressed.......

WOPPI looks like he is having fun , any times posted ?? there are a number of rockets on the road with more than 350 HP and over 250 tq and they are running 8 second ets and driving them everyday to work you have to drive a modded ROCKET as they have instant acceleration a result of massive tourque output that other bikes cannot duplicate a real blast to drive and sure to keep a smile on your face
