Some time ago we've been talking about the power of different bikes and if you want to compare apples with apples you need to have a same factor which could be the power-output calculated per 1000 cc.
So please take a look at this:

Motorcycle---------cc-----HP----HP per 1000cc

Ninja 250 --------- 249 --- 33 --- 132,5
Ninja 300 --------- 296 --- 39 --- 131,8
Honda 500 -------- 471 --- 48 --- 101,9
ER 6 -------------- 649 --- 72 --- 110,9
ZX-6R ----------- 636 --- 129 --- 202,8 (US-Model)
GSX-R 600 ------- 599 --- 125 --- 208,7
GSX-R 750 ------- 750 --- 150 --- 200,0
GSX-R 1000 ------ 999 --- 185 --- 185,2
ZX-10R ---------- 998 --- 200 --- 200,4
BMW S1000RR --- 999 --- 193 --- 193,2
Panigale -------- 1199 --- 195 --- 162,6
(I don't like autoformat functions )

Some notes:
The ZX-6R WVTA (Full Power Version, Model 2013) has 132 HP at 13500 RPM what means that the HP per 1000 CC = 207,5 HP
Interesting is that the Suzuki GSX-R600 has the highest power ratio and even when the Panigale doesn't show it in this picture, never forget it's a 2-cylinder and this bike has the same weight like the bike with the lowest power - the Ninja 250 (also it's a given fact that in reality there is no BMW S1000 below 200 hp when it leaves the factory, the spread from this engine is always in the upper range).
Maybe this could help a little bit to find a solution
