so at 9000 revs that's about 120 litres per second (if my maths is right)

Do you think any front runners have consulted Einstein on this? They just ride the thing. Its not about the nth degree of HP. Look how Chris Clarke and Spence and me last year mixed it at the front with the A bikes.

The B bikes are 10bhp less than a good A bike. All about corner speed more throttle and less brakes.
