899 What Kind Of Power

I went the other way from 1199 to 899.

899 needs to rev'd loads but it's easier to ride fast as it's not got the uncontrollable 7k hit a 1199 has. I'll try a 1299 at some point as I bet it's loads nicer than the 1199 from what I read

 

I really prefer the 899. Best bike I've owned in terms of usability. It's a bit bland to look at but spot on to ride.

 

Just come from an 899, brilliant bike in every way. Good through traffic (for a sports bike) and comes on song when pinned back. Not got a bad word to say about them.
Test rode the 1299 and it rides just as well when docile but then it's like someones arse raped a bull with chili on its dick!

 

Most sources seem to have tested the 899 at 130hp at the rear wheel which isn't bad, I rode a 1199 and didn't really get on with it, the 899 is great? Can really Rev it hard

 

ahh nah a 899 is coming with 250 bhp:tearsofjoy:

 

meant to be brilliant bikes , more sensible than its bigger brother,

 

don't no ate think its like a nuclear bomb going off isn't it lol, nah not pissed just merry,

 

1198 tonight for me

 

I think about 140 rwhp with systems may be to google the 899 race bikes for sale off the ducati trioptions cup,

 

Yep 140 is about right, depending on the dyno obviously. Our three identical tri-options bikes were all within 1bhp of each other on the Laguna Performance Centre Dyno earlier in the year. All stock bikes in terms of engine with just the Termi and Ducati Up-map.

 

nah be something different tomoro ,lol theres a corsa one looks mint the colour scheme, ,

 

I think Al Fagan did an article on the 899 cup bikes and said there were a few important changes to get more power, large air intake scoops, exhaust (of course) but also thy all removed the fuel pump filters as apparently that gets them 2hp! Sounds mad and u wouldn't do it on the road but doesn't matter for race bike.

I would imagine u can get 132-134hp with the termi's and filter and up map but anything further is custom map territory

 

140 is good power from a 899 sissy more than enough for road riding the first early r1 put out about 134 rwhp,

 

This is the Al Fagan - 44 teeth article.
