I'm guesstimating my actual output, as opposed to peak, by dyno charts, and my throttle-position vs. RPM. Peak HP in the RPM range I was in is around 13-14.

As for HP, Suzuki claims the crankshaft HP, which is substantially higher than wheel. The '07 and up has more HP than my '06 due to a larger stroke. Mine is ~30 at the crank, and peaks 19 at the rear wheel.

Either way, it's got some damn fine torque for a bike it's size. Now I just need a new drivebelt. (No, not because of my towing adventure, because I'm several thousand miles over the suggested change interval, and I haven't been nice to the belt before the towing ).
