How do they get such tiny amount of horsepower out of a 1000cc engine 😂😂😂🤣

[@martinstanek9711]

well, it's 20yrs... spec-wise it's same as the 790duke, except all the electronic doothat :D so i wouldn't scoff on it, still today it's quite fun bike and holds it's own... And Eric Buell did put a lot of RnD into it and his version of the HD engines were pretty good for it's time compared to stock HD. If you have a chance to test ride one of the XB12, do it ^^ (or any other Buell)

New Buells are 185hp now that they are liquid cooled.
