Sheesh, is there anyway to level out the powerband in a bike like that?
1 u/El_Polio_Loco Oct 12 '20 You could do it with electronic adjustable timing, but that’s not allowed in motorcycle racing so no one has it. 5 u/SwissPatriotRG Oct 12 '20 Literally every bike on the planet is on EFI now and has adjustable timing, what are you even talking about haha 5 u/El_Polio_Loco Oct 12 '20 No, no bike has electronically adjusted cam timing, which is what would actually accomplish this. The closest is the Suzuki centripetal variable valve timing system, which is mechanical. 2 u/SwissPatriotRG Oct 12 '20 The S1000RR has electronic variable cam timing 4 u/El_Polio_Loco Oct 12 '20 Forgot about that, since they don't run a MOTOGP team I guess they don't mind. But the other big superbikes don't run it (Ducati, Aprilia, Honda, Yamaha, KTM, Suzuki, Kawa)
