Simon..... If I did say 200bhp, it was a typo.

I know we can never trust the figures given by Dynos but it was usually quoted (and I thought I quoted it too) at (around) 100bhp . 125 Gbox was often quoted at 50/52 bhp and that was half a Rotax Twin!

The spectacular twin engined 125 gbox was sometimes quoted as having an even higher power output.

Again.... I am NOT saying these were accurate claims: what I am saying is this is what was being discussed when I was around the paddock WAY back when the Rotax Twin (256) was 'king'!

Driving them certainly FELT like they were in the 100 bhp range.......! They simply tried to tear your head off!
