Power to weight ratio Honda CBR 600F 2013?

Question

Please could you work out the Power to weight ratio of a Honda CBR 600F 2013. I know it's 101bhp. I'm struggling to find the weight of the 07-13 model  but even if I could I don't know the equation to work out the power to weight ratio per metric tonne. Thank you for you answers

Power to weight ratio is Power/weight

This is actually Power/mass....where power is measured in Watts and mass in kgs.

I am taking the bike's mass as 180kg and your given value of 101 bhp

Now, 1 bhp = 746 Watts

so, 101 bhp => 75,346 Watts....i.e. 75.3 kW

=> ratio is 75,346/180 = 418.6 Watts/kg

or, 0.42 kW/kg

There are lots of permutations depending on actual mass, wet/dry riding conditions, e.t.c.

However, P to W ratio is a good way to compare actual performance when considering fuel consumption and m.p.g, e.t.c.

Anyway, here is where I got my data from:
