How to Convert Motorcycle Horsepower?

[DeOlivia]

Motorcycle horsepower can be converted using the formula: kilowatts × 1.36 = horsepower, where 1 horsepower = 735 watts = 0.735 kilowatts, and 1 kilowatt = 1.36 horsepower. Related information about horsepower: 1. Horsepower data: Generally, when a motorcycle is launched, the manufacturer will provide the maximum horsepower data for the engine. Taking the DAYTONA-675 as an example, actual tests show that the bike's maximum horsepower is 111.1 HP (horsepower), with the output RPM noted at 12,600 rpm. This means that the peak 111.1 horsepower is only achieved when the engine exceeds 12,000 rpm. Below 7,000 rpm, the engine's output is even less than half of its maximum horsepower. 2. Power characteristics: High horsepower output is typically found in the high RPM range. This also contributes to what many riders perceive as one of the joys of riding: mastering power control. Because the engine's power is so elusive, understanding its characteristics becomes fundamental to handling a motorcycle.
