if im correct in thinking that the hornet is about 80bhp ? (jabba will correct me no matter what i say
) and my CBR is 109bhp standard (im hoping its alot more now i tinkered with it a bit)
the engine is the same . apart from the CBR's is designed to rev higher and harder. stretching the power out more across the rev range.
the hornet revs to about 10k (again . . . jabba correct me) while my CBR revs to 17k (redline is about 14.5k)
jabbas hornet will have more low down power than my CBR, but once i get my CBR upto about 8k i will leave jabba in the dust (in theory anyway
) the CBR just seems to rev and rev and rev.
but you gotta remember (what alot of people forget) is that the midrange is alot higher up in the rev range on an IL4 than on the SV. they need to be ridden at between 5-8k revs (thats where the midrange starts)
