Dyno results?

[roogazza]

What is it with dyno results? All that my bike pulls harder than your bike is a load of wank factor. What's wrong with getting your bikes out on a track and see who has the biggest balls and the best skills?

Are we talking 'special olympics' ? cos you know what the result will be if you win ? G.

[The Stranger:Me]

Too many people get sucked into chasing the big figures without looking at the peripheral equipment but it IS handy to know what you have if you're in a competitive situation.

So we shouldn't post dyno runs so as to protect the suckers from themselves?
It's ok, the auntie helen will do that for you.

No gazza. I just dont get why people feel they need they have to prove how many ponies their bike has. Like MG says her bike only had 145hp but she only got it to 140kph. What is the point of knowing how much hp if you cant use it?

I can understand it in a competitive scene where you might need every pony you could get but for road riding?

Aaahhhhh so thats the secret, I need stickers :slap:

I would like to get mine on the dyno at some stage just for interest more than anything else.

I think its a normal bike rider thing as far as I can see. I have built my bike into something a bit better and although i haven't been on a dyno , just knowing it puts out X gives me a buzz. Then when out on the track you can spot the difference as well. Maybe its a bloke thing ? Gaz.

Thats a typical shelia comment. How are going to know if you made the right adjustments to get the best out of your mods. You nuns shouldn't even be aware of the balls factor.

Well that explains it...Im not a normal bike rider. Im glad you and others get a kick out of knowing how much cos i get a kick out of you guys comparing.

Perhaps I might understand better if I saw it in action....you wanna show me yours?

I got quite a kick out of spending two hours on the dyno with the sidecar getting the mixture & timing right & taking it from 187 rwhp to 227 rwhp, thats the best 168 dollars i ever spent.
I guess thats the difference between a NZ champ & an also ran.
If dynoing bikes is for wankers then bags not be the one to tell Sam Smith, Andrew Stroud & Shaun Harris etc that they are a bunch of wankers.

Yeah I already know you have the biggest wank factor but
read my posts again Dob...I said I can understand it in a competitive way but not for road riding.

Nasty angry little piece of crap aint she, Just cant help herself from commentating on topics about which she has no idea, & the only reason her ZXR goes any good is because i fully sorted it out at my own expense.
Grab the popcorn & sit back guys, this should be good!!!

[ozrobo]

so you dont like to be competitive on the road i sure prefer to have my bike running well as it can and still beat them cafe racers up the mountains dyno dont sound like a bad idea

227hp from a relatively stock Hayabusa is doing ok,

we don’t bullshit about what is inside our engine – we’ve stated fact, that all we have is Wiseco pistons (of original cc). No hot cams, no rods, no trick crank, no oversize valves

I'm sure Scrivy wouldn't bullshit us

Its bizarre that you imply we’ve got the most horsepower and that’s how we’re winning races. In fact, the Prentices would have the same, Dave Annan would definitely have more

I think he needs to retract those comments

Its not whats inside the engine that gave us the big gain, when you work out how fuel injection works you might figure out what we did.
Two can play the tongue poking game fella.

K2 GSX-R 600
K&N Filter,
K4 cams set to 103, 105
PAIR valves blocked
Arrow full exhaust system
Power Commander 3r
Telefonica Movistar paint job

100.8bhp at the wheel
43.39 ftlb torques


K4 GSX-R 600
BMC filter
Yoshimura cams, and valve springs
Yoshimura block off plates
Yoshimura full exhaust system
Yoshimura race ECU
Yoshimura high compression head gasket
PC3usb

105.16 bhp at the wheel
43.18 ftlb torques

Points of interest:
The K2 makes more torque than the K4
The power curves of both bikes are very close until 12'500, when the K4 edges ahead
The K2 was dynoed by the previous owner at 110bhp on a different dyno.
The K4 is leading the VMCC winter series in F2, and 2nd in F1 against much newer, and bigger cc bikes

HP numbers are just numbers
