Not sure how equal riders would go on 120bhp and 144bhp for example?

Probably go the same speed eh - not!

for what its worth im not so sure horsepower counts anywhere near as much as some people are making out.

last time i was on my 146 bhp 999 at brands indy best i did was 58.65

on my 60? bhp monster a week back best i did was a 58.06

now, ok its a year apart and hopefully i have improved a bit but even so? going from what some people are saying i should be WAY slower on the monster.
