worntorn said:He's owned and ridden Commandos over the years, but found this new bike to be quite a bit beyond that kind of power level. So it should be 961cc plus lots of Keeny Dreer's ideas in there.
The Dreer 880s showed 67 to 70 RWHP on the dyno according to Kenny. I think the 961 has another 10 or so.
Our Commandos in stock form, and here it doesn't matter much which model you choose, might hit 50RWHP if in perfect tune at sea level.
Again, according to Dreer, the dyno he used for the 880s was also used for a lot of stock bikes that he restored. None of those ever broke 50 rwhp.
I think Dyno Dave had similar results , recently, wasn't 49 the top number?

just saying an 70s commando feels/is quicker than a new twin triumph in stock form (50hp + less weight +restrictions)
