HP?
who cares.

I found this on Wikapedia.

The Suzuki LS650 Savage, or LS650, is a lightweight custom cruiser motorcycle.

The Savage utilizes Suzuki's "Big Single" power plant, a ~30 horsepower, 40 cubic inch, four-stroke, single cylinder, air cooled, single overhead cam engine. Single cylinder engines like the one used in this motorcycle are sometimes affectionately referred to as a one-lunger or thumper. This engine is considered to be a geared-for-in-town performance torquer style of motor, delivering good performance at moderate revs compared to most Japanese motorcycle engines

yer, ive just passed my test in the uk and im only 19, so im only allowed up to 33bhp for two years. theres no limit on torque tho  

Some states I have learned do limit the size bike for a new rider to a certain cc or horsepower. Here in Wa State I am endorsed for any 2 wheel vehicle. With NO limits.
I have friends that have told me that years ago they did limit. I am very glad that is a thing in the past...

Germany used to have a 27Hp for beginners and 100hp general limit!!!

Sure they do.

The explicit responsibility of the State is to protect the rights of the citizenry and promote the general welfare.  Given that inexperienced drivers on high powered bikes are involved in a grossly disproportionate percentage of accidents, limiting such situations protects the "other party" in all those potential accidents.

The basis for regulation is exactly the same as the basis for licensing all drivers and making sure they're competent.  While driving or riding, you have the capacity to be supremely lethal; that provides the basis for both licensing and restriction.
