I'll have a punt at 100bhp with 90ft/lbs at something like 5k revs. I hope so anyway 👍

I'd love to see a 10k redline, I dont know why that would be an issue?

In my area the roads are tight and twisty, would save me some shifts if I could sit in third gear and roll it up and down between 5k-9k, I think that would be about perfect for the blue ridge

It has to be close to 140Hp to compete with the new R1250 engine (137Hp) and it's a 90degree liquid cooled motor with OHV (like Ducati) so my guess is that it's going to be around 142Hp.

Bump:
BC has requested a lock be placed on the thread around 6:00PM central time, so a tally can be made from the responses so a winner can be named.
I’m only assisting BC with this endeavor therefore I have no idea what the prize will be for the winning guess, as to the closest calculation for the HP output of the new Guzzi coming out.
However, if I was a participant and took the time to register my calculation response, I’d demand my prize👍🤔😂😂😂

Good luck participants🤞

How about  111BHP , and 92 F / lbs.   ?

Do you think the models will differ?    I guess the model set up with Ohlins will push 5 HP more.

With 45 minute to go until lock down and I may have some inside information about the grand prize, I think it’s worth throwing my hat in the ring.
My official bid is 126 HP as the factory Spec.
I decline to say what the HP on the rear wheel is.
I will also offer a bid for torque spec being 90lb.
I also vote that multiple HP guesses such as 85-90 be invalid. Just saying so don’t kill the messenger.
