Hey guys, here is my run. Noteworthy: Dirt Shop tunes lots of Motard and mx race bikes What I have-EJK with setting discussed in other posts, Hurricane filter/with opened airbox, 13/40 gearing, Micheline tire with Xheavyduty tube, Ben740 dually pipe, run 91 gasohol, Royal Purple Synth oil--and has 49,000 km /7,900 mi Thats about it! Thought it would be above 20HP, but..... feels a lot quicker/faster than this! Just got the CBR300 cams and will install with my new cam chain then Dyno again. After that, engine is done. Just reasoning cost vs power, and see it as a money pit for what? I dont race anymore and she really does all that I ask of her! Thoughts, questions, jokes?????
Jokes? Well. ... there once was this ... Nevermind, I'm not good at jokes. But you can never have too much power! It's an unreasonable need that should be perpetually chased. LOL I actually come from another school of thought that prefers handling over power, so I disagree with my statement above. But with this bike, 20 bhp would be a dream. When I go to pass cars, I feel like I'm driving my old Dodge conversion van. As I said before, your bike is gorgeous.
Do the two lines represent before and after? If so it's surprising you actually have less power at lower revs which must completely change the way you'd ride it.
One neat little tidbit is that on a dyno graph that has the tq and hp on the same scales (like the one above), the lines will always cross at exactly 5252 rpm. It isn't magic; it's because hp is a calculated figure of torque * rpm / a constant, which happens to be 5252 for the most common units used.
Did you get a "before" Dyno run to base the improvements off of? I've just finished the suspension and handling Mods and I'm ready to start looking for a little more get up and go.
