How are the big 2strokes for power delivery? I've always thought 2strokes were like light switches - either full throttle in the powerband or nothing...which seems like something you wouldn't want as you're coming off the apex.

PLEASE SEE DYNO GRAPH IN NEXT POST
To further the confusion about what people are referring to when talking about dyno numbers....this is for my Vertemati 600 . This is on a Factory Eddy Current dyno.....which supposedly reads about 10% lower than the more commonly referred to dynojet #'s.
This may also make interesting reading for some : http://www.factorypro.com/dyno/true1.html

Yeah I was looking foir a cr500 and found the street titled kx500. Both fun bike.
It's easy to have a really broad wide powerband w/ a big bore 2 stroke.
Heck I build one myself. My 300cc top end on my 250SX w/ porting, different pipes, altering base gaskets, and different compression levels has right at the same peak hp as it did as a 250 but the powerband is just super wide. It starts on the bottom and literally pulls very smooth and strong right up until it hits the rev limiter.
Not running a 'tuned' expansion chamber is key to this. You will have less peak but a wider powerband will be the result.

How reliable is the motor after all these power mods i.e. turbos etc.? I'm plannin on gettin a DRZ 400-sm real soon and want to make more power out of it while still having a reliable bike

Gawd! I get sick of these cut and past spam attacks like the last two posts.
Bet you cant wait for the cut and paste attack about getting an "EASY" 100++ hp from an Rd350
Whoa! the two other spam posts before mine got whacked. Good riddance!
BTW, now that they're gone it makes my post look like I'm talking like a douchebag to the NEXT two previous posts. Sorry for the confusion guys.
Ducati Hypermotards have pretty decent power, but they are on the borderline to supermotardsI think that old XR turbo from sweden is about 100rwhp if I remember correctly. My local KTM dealer asked me if I wanted to get my lc4 tuned, appearantly there is an austrian company that gets about 90hp out of the lc4 machines. But reliability was still an issue

Even alcohol can bend the room...
And don't forget about the 950SM. Its a torque monster compared to singles
This crazy bastard has built quite a beast, I just don't recall anything about it. The pics from a few years ago; maybe someone remembers...
Holy big single cylinder Batman! Like 750cc's or more?
A totally custom motor or some grafted/mutated parts from a XR650R?
on ebay right now theres a cr500 engine thats supposed to be making 103 hp on alcohol.
just thought someone in this thread might be interested.
I read something somewhere on the internet about someone living somewhere, who was getting something like one hundred hp out of a single cylinder engine.
Sorry no bike details, don't know if it was pump gas or nitro, EFI or carbed, sorry no links or pics.
Sorry I couldn't help myself.![]()
yeah, because its not like i didn't tell you the site where i found it or anything. sorry if going to ebay and searching the term cr500 engine was too complicated a task for you...
* and i did say that it was on alky, no nitro or pump gas. so maybe searching ebay is too much work for you, but at least you could bother reading the posts which you reply to?

out of curiousity i went and googled it, and look what a 3 second search turned up:

"This is my favorite topic, and if it weren’t yours also, you wouldn’t be here right?
After six months of testing and tuning of port layouts, head designs, ignitions, pipes, and carburetion, I have finally pulled together a complete 500 Sabertooth package that is both extremely powerful, at just over 103 hp and 68 ft/lbs torque, but also quite ride able and user friendly. As you can see from the dyno chart, the ultra wide torque curve is generated way down low around 6000 rpm and carried across in a wide and useable powerband to 9500 rpm. This shows you don’t have to be a pro rider to benefit from this versatile power plant."

direct injection two stroke will start putting big numbers down...soon enough.
Screw the biggest horsepower, I wanna know who has the lightest sumo. I'd put money on that one in a race between the 2. Depending on the track of course, but we are talking about sumos.

I want 80+ rwhp and 230#.

If you lads don't mind me chiming in on something related but different and for my own selfish reasons, what do you think my '07 690sm is putting to the wheel with a Full Leo System and a TuneBoy Tune?

I have a 2008 250SX 2 stroke mx bike that has a 300 ported cylinder, trick carb, etc... It also weighs 210 (weighed it myself) ready to ride in MX trim.
I guarantee that it makes at least upper 40's for hp and that I could add less than 15# to get it streetlegal. And it has crossed my mind a few times to go that route.
But since I was pretty much raised on liter bikes I need some real hp and when you gear a bike to go say 100 mph it starts to feel a lot weaker all of the sudden.
So I love light weight but I still want to be able to loft the front tire while cruising down the freeway and would sacrifice a bit of weight gain to get that.

The guy with the xr650 turbo is benny (boost3, boostIII on forums) and he tried it up to 125 rwhp. Theres some pretty detailed threads but in swedish only.
Not sure if hes running 125hp in the vids tho.

Other then that id give my left nut for a husaberg 750cc big bore kit not sure if jbsracing ever got the even bigger once made.
Easiest way for me would be loosing some weight tho cause all that mathers with hp is waight to hp ratio including driver :P

The Xr650R turbo from Sweden must be the supermoto with the highest HP. Think it has about 120-130hp...

how much horsepower is the aprilia dorsoduro? not many of them in the states, but i want one.

Speaking of which, why is the Aprilia dorsoduro labeled as a "supermoto" to begin with? I'm looking at the bike, then I'm staring at the specs and there isn't any reason why I'd classify it as anything besides a standard/naked bike.
They slap an extra 1" of travel front and rear and all of sudden it's now supermoto instead of a standard?

You guys should be concerned with power to weight ratio. My wifes supermoto that I just built is a 150r with a 250r motor. Full tank of gas and full sumo trim is 190 with 40hp. And she only weighs 110 and I'm 165. Deadly combo. In the twisties it will SMOKE my sxv 550
