i think 70+ is realistic but as tony says outright power is not the be all and end all. you need to be able to use what you have effectively.

i dont think a few bhp makes chuff all difference to be honest. but most of the front runners either/have or will have a few mods such as pc's giving upwards of 65 bhp.

but the the talented rider with a well set up bike will prevail.

b.t.w im going down the same route as you. sssshhhhhh.....
