How much hp loss can you expect from streching your bike 8 over.
Hp loss due to chain weight and oring resistance. Anybody know.
 
There are lots of things that rob HP.

Low air pressure in the tires robs HP
Smaller front sprocket robs HP
Tight chain robs HP
Dirty air filter robs HP
Just to name a few
Your extra 16" of chain does rob a negligible amount
 
That and I need to upgrade from my 60Hz flux capacitor to a 120Hz. That would yield a noticable gain and if I can get ahold of a Baracudda 500GB 14000RPM SATA Hard drive and a high capacity 12 cell lithium ion battery and a new set of rear blinkers God only knows what I would be capable of doing.:whistle:

I just wish they made more $2 bills so I could afford it.
 
if you put the supplied chain company sticker on your bike i believe its good for around +3hp at the wheel if stuck correctly.:lol:
