175HP was the factory claim, but that was at the crank. On the dyno expect to see 150HP. With the mods you mention you might see another 10-15HP, but I wouldn't bet on it.

 

Gotcha. I kinda want to do a dyno run to get a actual number. What does the gen 4 have? Aren't they close to the bmw s1000rr

Yeah, they're close.

 

Add a full exhaust with PC3 instead of just the servo delete and that would be a more realistic expectation.

One hundred seventy five horse power.
Kawasaki does not measure at the crankshaft like the competition.
The output is accurate. Kawasaki is more sophisticated than all the other manufacturers combined and there run by smarter men.
They can make more stick and do.
The American ecu has a lock that removes thirty three horsepower. They need to be flashed or replaced with after market ecu.

 

Don't be stupid. Hp ratings come off the crank from all manufacturers.

Btw, how would you know what smart is when both your logic and grammar are off?

 

:lol

 

ummmm.......no

 

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that he was being facetious.

 

You could be right, but a few of his statements and a low number of posts suggest otherwise to me. Had it been from someone like yourself, I think the statements would have been a little more creatively definitive, and we would have noticed immediately without giving it second thought. I'm not one for cheer leading anything or anyone, and it is for this reason I responded. Only his response could clear it up, and maybe I'll have to apologize. In the meantime, .... :th_CheshireCat:

 

Touché.

 

if it helps with the comparison my bike was listed as 197hp (at the crank). When I had it dyno'd it put out 167whp stock and 187whp after mods.

 

Yes, that helps a whole lot. Wait. What? No. Never mind.

 

Damn Tequila afternoons. I have no idea whatsoever what I thought I was trying to say here.

 

^ I believe the gen1 & gen4 are very similar in power output
and rating at the crank vs. wheel have confused many members before.
but if it didn't help the conversation then never mind :dunno

 

I am absolutely a Tequila guy. You've got some great ones there. Most are hard to make out, but I can see a Claze Azul repo, Porfidio Anejo (getting hard to find those cactus bottles anymore!) and an El Tesoro Paradiso in particular jumping out at me. I just picked up a 1.75 of the Clase Azul a couple weeks ago. Damn thing is almost impossible to pour, but it sure looks awesome on the shelf!

 

^ To help you identify some of those on the top shelf of my fireplace mantel from left-to-right: Tres-Quatro-Cinco ($400), Cabo Uno, the one in the box is Don Julio Real ($350), Don Fulano (can’t get this metal bottle anymore), Herradura Suprema ($300), Gan Cenenario Gran Reserva ($300) and the Casa Azul rep that you recognized. Funny thing is I rarely drink these aged tequilas anymore, find myself drinking a lot of Cabo Wabo blanco & reposado, like tasting that sweet agave flavor.

 

Awesome. I'm going the opposite direction, it's getting to the point where if it isn't a few years old, I don't even want to drink it anymore. Claze Azul is the predominant exception, but most of my old favorite Anejos are still too young for me these days. It hasn't been a kind scenario to my bank account.
