    Where's it gone?

    I finally put the Bandit on the dyno yesterday. It developes a screaming 76hp!
    Where the hell has the other 30 gone?
    My K1 was putting out 90 plus with the jetting miles lean. 111 when that was fixed.
    Further investigation is needed.

    Those Bandit Triples have always been gutless.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    The dyno operator was either pissed or doesn't like you - probably both

    I suspected the AMPS dyno read a bit low but not that much :-)

    They asked if they were microchipped.

    Bandit what?

    What size bandit?
    My GS1200 is pretty similar and made a lazy 92hp at the wheel at 8000rpm.
    Well, according to the dyno at Henderson Motorcycles.

    I think Colemans put the "old codger" restricter in it Lou.

    They were worried about you doing yourself an injury playing at Valentino Rossi on Gundry Street in rush hour.
