CBR1000RR?

From another site. Don't know if it's true but that would be quite the engine to have in a BEC.

"The CBR1000RR is particularly close to the bike ridden by Nicky Hayden, Honda's top factory rider; it has 180bhp, weighs 179kg and can hit 100mph in well under five seconds." Imagine, 1HP/kg!!!!! (that's 1HP/2.2 lbs)

My 1994 TZ250 has 80bhp and weighs 100kg, so not far off 1bhp/kg! It's fun!

Erm yeah, about 70bhp and one cylinder less than the MotoGP bike.
