I just Got my Notice Today. The New Titan R3 engines will be here on the 18th of Nov. Yes !!! This is exciting for sure !!! Enjoy the ride...

The New Titan R3's that will be here on the 18th of Nov, should push 40mph with a 36T and if you are around 1000 feet or less. Up here where I am, I can get 32-35 mph with a 36T but I am at 6000-9000 feet high. And every where I go is up from there. So.. I am way way down on power. I took my Titan to Table Rock in Missouri and I was Shocked at the power increase. Wow !! Enjoy the ride...

What is the power rating on the TitanR3? What kind or RPM's are we looking at? There would happen to be a torque and HP curve graph for it would there?

Horse Power is around 2.2hp-2.5 hp. Plenty of power for sure. You can go to the 4 stroke pages and get some specs. Thanks.. Enjoy the ride..

Thanks, I actually had found that it was 2-3HP on your site. Are the R3's the same?

Thanks again for your help!

The R3 Rating is the Same. The R3 will have improved Fuel Tank Assembly and Fuel Line Routing. I really Feel that 2-3 hp is plenty. Running 30mph smooth and fast out of the box is plenty fast for bicycles. Very fast... With different gearing, 35-40 can be acquired and is super fast !!! Enjoy the ride...

I guess my next big question is how I can mate a drive gear or clutch up to the engine without using your reduction box? You can check out this thread where I have been asking this question if you want.

Thanks for the help!

You need reduction. 5:1 is best for bicycles with 700c or 26 inch wheels. With no Reduction, you will have a tiny sprocket on the motor and then a huge one on the bicycle. Huge as in almost as big as the wheel. So you really need to consider reduction. Also.. you need to clutch the PTO.
