One of these roadsters(X190, S360, S500, S600, S800)
are the one that I described earlier. Unfortunately, I just
can't recall which.

Additionally, here's some detail on the Honda S2000.

It doesn't look like it's in any danger of runnin' off from
a GoldWing, or most any other >500cc motorcycle.

And here's the S2000 specifications, and you're right,
no reason a 2.157Kcc motorcycle mill couldn't have
~250hp & 150-175 foot/lbs.

I have say these specs indicate it will smoke the wing top end, and thru the
turns, and real close 1/4 mile. You are aware those wings ain't gonna run
156mph?? 'cept maybe the Redshads

0-60:5.4
0-100:13.8
1/4 mile:[email protected] mph
top speed:156mph
braking 60mph:115ft
braking 80mph:206ft
skidpad.91
slalom 69.7

 

Yeah, but I was only talkin' 1/4 mile. But, I really do wonder
if an S2000 would run >150mph?

Pushin' a mass that's the size of an S2000, through the atmo-
sphere, with a 2Kcc motor seems like a pretty tall order to
me.

But, I did some extra poking around, and found owner refer-
ences to anywhere from 146-156mph. But, they add that it
takes a "very long" time to get there. One of the owners says
"it's the first car he's ever owned that will pull redline in high
gear".

I guess you need to get "acorn" to run with the S2000 on top
end. - LOL
