    Yeah... Should be worth it.....

    but seriously (snigger, snort) I do actually know people who carry their dyno slip around with them and whip it out at any sign of interest but it always ends up the same way....



    Well not me I guess but then again.... I'm odd....

    Continued..

    It all depends on the conditions when the bike is run too.
    When we dyno'ed Jimbo's bike we were having problems hooking the dyno up. And it was outside with NO air vents blowing air into the vents!
    (performance car/bike show) If you dyno a bike on different dyno's it will always give a different reading, as they will be configued differently.
    Either way they are the best way to get max hp and to see how your bike is actually running. What ever kind of dyno u use.
    As far as cost goes, When we do dyno work on a bike, we charge $95 for the run, then if you want stuff done to your bike, you just pay for parts/labour (same everywhere im guessing) You only pay once for the dyno. Which means that it doesnt matter how many times its run on the dyno, you only pay $95 ONCE. The only figue that will change will be the amount of labour and if you use any parts. (does that make sense?)What I really mean is that we will fiddle a bit then run it up, then fiddle more and run it again and so on.
    Doent matter where you go, both shops are always glad to do it. The girls at WMC are a good bunch, (so long as i get good deals on gixer parts) so either way you will be looked after. :cool2:

    It's my latest chat-up line for cute blokes when I meet them for the first time: "hi there, would you like to look at my dyno charts?"

    Being frustrated is disagreeable.

    The guys at MM are a pretty on to it bunch, so you really can't go wrong either way.

    Of course I want it !!!

    Top speed won't matter on the Brutale, they'll limited to 250kph anyway.

    Either burn it onto a cdrom or just bring in your memory card into work and let me know. My PC can read 6 different memory cards apparently so should have your one covered. Or email the file to me.
