Hi everyone.
My good friend has recently purchased what I think is a 08 or 09 GSX-R 1000.
I must admit that it is a very fast bike (I've ridden it and looked at it's taillights from my Z1000 quite often).
However, the seller of this bike told my friend that the bike makes 270hp on NOS.
The bike does have all the goodies.... Air shift, NOS system, stretched, onboard air....etc etc. It looks mostly like a normal stretched and lowered street bike.
270hp though? I mean, that seems like a ton to me without forced induction from a liter bike...even with juice, and I've told him so several times.
Is that realistic or did my friend hear it wrong (or was sold a line)?
What do you think the max hp on a seriously built GSXR1000 would be ... I mean if you went all out on the motor without adding forced induction?
Just curious.
