be warned the power commander 6 is a lot more difficult to deal with than the 5, ask how i know. would highly recommend a 5 of you can find one.

That seems to be the common consensus so I will likely go that way.

I'll reply the exact same response to you that I did in your PM that you said 'you old guys crack me up"-


There's nothing to laugh about. I'm not old- unless you are a child. I'm not even 50 yet... but I've been building engines in bikes and cars for almost 40 years.

You don't even know the difference between rated at the crank and wheel.

Derp.

My 104 wheel is a LOT more powerful than a BMW 109 mag listed bike.

I'm guessing you are young...and KNOWING you have a lot to learn.

Your bike isn't as powerful as you think it is... and yea- you will need to downshift to outrun me.
Edit- and to anyone wondering why I posted that- the kid PM'd me and said-

"Carry on, I’m enjoying the banter and you don’t need to PM me, let’s keep it public as I’m sure others will enjoy the humor "

No doubt you have the strongest 1140cc Honda CB1100 on the planet….only problem is my 948cc Z900RS will run circles around it in STOCK trim….and if ridden correctly it won’t need a downshift to do it as it makes max power at only 8500rpm. Not everyone rides around at 2k rpm…

My air cooled 1170cc BMW R9T was rated 110 hp at 7800rpm…not all bikes need to be wrung out to move, heck my 1100 Monster was 100hp at 8000rpm and would pull your arms out of your sockets at 4000

Back to your cam numbers, you picked up 3 hp by doing a cam swap…at what cost I ask?

At what point does reality set in?

Right now apparently-






Compared to-


Going to bed... but laughing as I do so... my bike matches his PEAK tq when I am at 3k and doesn't drop below that until 8400... and he is talking trash to me in PM.

And your bike (stock) is above 90whp - if I am generous- for 1500 RPM.

My bike is above 90whp for 2600 RPM and above 100whp for pretty much 2,000 RPM.


"Not everyone rides around at 2k rpm…" What if... you can do both?



...and- got your pink slip? I do- and will line up- just like 'the old guys' used to do.

In fact, I was at the drag strip last weekend. It's 20 minutes from my house and I've been going there for decades. Let's party.

This isn't quite what I expected to wake up today but im with you powerdubs. Some people are just jealous for one reason or another. Its no secret that the cb1100 isnt the best bang for buck platform for making power, thats no secret. Short of forced induction there isn't much the average person can do. Truth be told, Im sure these bike could be turbocharged as a tubro system tends to be the most versatile form of forced induction. I would vastly prefer a supercharger for it however, I know they make a kit for the cb1000 which increases power by about 80 HP which is impressive, sadly though it wouldn't be compatable with the 1100. Im sure someone with enough knowledge and machining experience could make such a system. and id gladly pay for it, but I dont have the knowledge, connections, or skill to come close lol.
