Even my old FZS1000 had 99ftlbs........but somehow I lost 10-20hp?

I dyno

Not sure where the figure you quote was gained? But i do know there can be big differences in how dyno's work...
Bike Specs quote the fazer as 74ft lbs, which would seem about right when compared to similar 'detuned' version engines

Model: Yamaha FZS 1000 Fazer
Year: 2002
Engine and transmission
Displacement: 998.00 ccm (60.90 cubic inches)

Geez, I 'm glad I learnt to ride before these days of 'Expert's and the Internet.

I've never had to get my knee down or slide the rear wheel out. In 44 years riding, neither have been neccessary survival skills. Having enough brains to read the road / envrioment, and leave a decent safety margin has usually done the job.

'Experts' have always been around. It's only the internet thats made any difference.
