Where is Alan Cathcart when you need him?... I would say he has as much experience with all those bikes as anybody but some pro racers, because he has riden all those bikes you mentioned.... but I can't remember many of the details, other than 500cc GP 2-strokes will make between 170 to 195 HP depending on how they are tuned for that weeks track... but I can't remember the RPM they were doing it at.... You might try Roadracing World's online back issues for old tests going back a few years....I'll get the URL if you need it.
