How much is akra charging for what looks to be 2 hp gain? :laughing
Those are freaking impressive numbers for sure.
damn thats a peaky SOB of an engine for a literbike...
Peaky? It's making 60 ft/lbs of torque from around 4000 rpms. That gives it a 10,000 rpm range where it's got very useable torque.
It only looks peaky because the torque continues climbing, rather than levelling off. I guess you could call that peaky.
Why don't the Hp and Torque lines intersect at 5252 RPM? I thought they were supposed to.
Wowie +175hp at the wheel!
I wonder which model of dyno was used. Some dyno's are more generous than others.
Different left/right scales?

Yep, but, that just means the buyer should know...Ya gonna use it on the track or the street?
It's a track focused engine. Super short stroke to get the high RPM's, and the business done there.
The whole package might be so fun, the short comings on the street might be forgiven.
It might not hurt to just figure BMW came out swinging, to make a showing at the track, and later on will bring out another version that is street focused.
The torque scale is not in lb-ft because 110 isn't reasonable for a 1000. Possibly Newton-meters (100N-m ~= 74lb-ft). Possibly just FU.
The dip in the torque curve is typical of sportbike engines. It's just more prominent in this graph because of the weird scale.
