From looking at the eBay thread I saw that GSX1100R, I went and did some research on it, and the last example of the old school aircooled bike was in the early 90's I believe. This bike had almost 150 hp!!! Is it strichtly the 16 valve motor that gives this bike so much more power than the 85 GPz11? or am I missing something
www.suzukicycles.org/GSX-R-series/GSX-R1100.shtml
The GPZ1100 was rated at 120HP at only 8700rpm. The HP gos up exponentially with RPM. Plus there was a lot of embellishment on the HP ratings back than.

gixxer
Compression: 11.2 : 1
Bore x stroke: 75.5 x 60.0 mm
GPz
Bore x Stroke, Ø72.5 mm x 66.0 mm
Just looking at the stroke ratio the gixxer is more oversquare...I guess it's just an all around more modern aircooled bike, but I would guess the GPz would sound better

doesn't oil cooled just mean the same thing as air cooled though? I suppose that you are right about the rpm though...
The GSXR's actually have a factory installed oil cooler, like a radiator. Just like you would have as an aftermarket oil cooler on your KZ when you build a higher displacement, hotter running engine.
X2 for everything that otakar says about oversquare. Look at a formula one engine some time.

That oil cooler is about the same size as a radiator on a modern bike. It is huge.

Available as the Bandit 1200 until 2006. Dale Walker had 150 at the rear wheel, and there were a lot more fellows running bigger numbers than that. Dales' is a Street Bike.
150 HP @ 96 ft-lbs torque at rear wheel (best dyno pull) 1/4 mile 9.70 ET., 141 mph...

id say 150 hp stock is pretty optimistic,maybe 130ish.From looking at the eBay thread I saw that GSX1100R, I went and did some research on it, and the last example of the old school aircooled bike was in the early 90's I believe.
