The Ninja 650 (Asian spec) I'm riding now has a catalog horsepower of 72.1 hp (53.0 kW) at 8,500 rpm.
Honda RC213V-S (Japan spec) with 70ps/6000prm.Price: 21.9 million yen
So, how much horsepower is the Ninja 650 actually making on the open road? Looking at the power curve, I can see that even when I'm revving the bike a little hard, I'm making 55 horsepower off a straight line.
To be honest, I feel like I'm breaking the Highway Traffic Act when I'm driving with around 50 horsepower, and I'm like, "If I had any more power, I wouldn't be able to handle it except in a straight line!" It's like.
I checked the power curve and found out that even though it has more than 100 horsepower, the way I ride, I only use 50-60 horsepower in the normal touring range, and 80 horsepower at max.
That's what I wrote. Well, I guess I'll get used to riding it, and I'll be able to turn it a little more, but I don't think that's the speed range that adult riders can go on public roads......
By the way, when Jeremy Clarkson was reviewing the Bugatti Veyron on Top Gear, I saw him saying "I'm using 50 out of 1000 horsepower right now" while driving down the highway. I remember thinking, "Well, that's the way it usually is.
There was a part that I was curious about.
The Ninja 650's 72.1 horsepower is more than enough for my needs, as I like to rev high and spin hard.
By the way, now that I'm used to driving it after 8 months/10,000km, I think it could use a little more acceleration...... I've been driving it for a little over 10,000km. ButTo do this, you need torque, not horsepower.
So I'm not at all attracted to external mufflers, which often sacrifice low-speed torque when they are installed....... No, there isn't a single external muffler sold for the old Ninja 650 that will pass inspection.
So I was wondering if there is any way to tune it to increase the torque a little more? This is what I found when I was searching for it.I also wrote an article about it.But
Say"Yoshimura"This is a sub-computer (sub-computer) sold by Basically, it's a closed-circuit component, so you have to make your own settings, and it's expensive, but you can control the fuel balance freely and it's very easy to use.With the addition of optional parts, it can even be equipped with a pseudo traction control function!
Wow, that was amazing. I thought.I can't afford to spend double digits for this.I don't want to go through the hassle of setting up .....
I wonder if it's possible to tune it more easily and with less effort...... But I don't like the idea of changing the number of sprockets. ..... I want to raise the overall speed from low to high rpm....... So I googled further and found this a while ago.
It seems to be a rather major part for Harley and BMW riders.TOURATECH's BoosterPlug
This is a part that interrupts the wiring between the intake air temperature sensor and the injection ECU to provide slightly lower temperature information than the actual temperature.
Soft and good response from engine rpm when throttle is turned on and off.
Improves acceleration by properly enriching (averaging about 6% thicker) the mixture when the throttle is opened.
Eliminates the intermittent loss of torque at low speeds (low-speed thumping) often seen in the lean-burn engines of modern motorcycles.
Improves stability and reliability when idling.
Reduces after-fire in the muffler when using engine braking.
The disadvantage is that it reduces fuel efficiency by a few percent. The disadvantage is that the fuel consumption is reduced by a few percent due to the increased fuel density. When I googled reviews on the web, I found many comments that the torque changed drastically for the better.
Hmmm...I can try it out for about 20,000 yen...maybe I'll buy one........ I wonder if there are any disadvantages other than fuel efficiency, like carbon buildup due to the higher fuel density. ...... I'm curious......
