    Seems to me, you get more believable horsepower by keeping your mouth shut. Skiters always full of it!

    Oh and 'viscous' throttle response

    How viscous? Like honey? Like cold oil? Like tar?

    That actually does make a difference to the number a dyno gives. Run a bike up with a slick and then with a road tyre, the difference is impressive.

    Alas, no.

    But I've heard tell of an engine tuner who was frustrated by a bike he couldn't get the right power from a motor, that he'd previously achieved from the same mods. He only put a road tyre on the bike because he'd done so many runs on the slick that it was fucked. Run it up again, BINGO!

    Unless you're using one like WMCC's old one.
