Hi Manfred and all others,

65 hp measured at the engine/clutch seems not very much, looking 
at the measurements taken at many tests of motorcycling 
magazines. Some examples:

	MOTORRAD 18/97 (@ vs. KTM Adventure) 63 hp at 6900/min
												67 nm at 5800/min

	 MOTORRAD 13/93						63 hp at 7600/min

	MOTORRAD 8/94	(@ vs. Cagiva Elefant)	64 hp at 7400/min
												66 nm at 6000/min

	PS 8/1993					(clutch/engine) 64 hp at 6800/min
								(rear wheel)	54 hp ( =165km/h)

	PS 10/1995								61 hp at 7300/min

	MOTORRAD ENDURO XTRA 1998		63 hp at 6900/min

So it seems the @ performs better than you can read in your 
papers. Or Honda only gives selected bikes to the tests.

Anyway, IMHO,a lot of money and time for only two or three hp.

BTW: all tested @ were RD07īs.

Have a nice day,

Marco
