Taupo road race spectacular 2010

Yeah I left it till I was sure the bike was going to run and make power. 29.2hp should do it

Wow now that is laying it down. How much does you bike weigh?

Good to see you guys are paying attention.

Actually I don't know what it makes. It goes on a dyno after the 2-hour. Must be some worried people out there if you believed that. Wobbly reckons 37 at the crank but I don't see it.

Well you never know. Someone needs to push up to the magic number 30. We all know that is what we really want.

I've seen Nigel's make 27.5 on Brett Robert's dyno and it was big and fat as well, not peaky.

General consensus at the track today was you were full of shit. Doesnt mean we are not paying atention or worried

What about the National GP race? How will that work?

I'll just be happy to do better than 21st.

Yeah I left it till I was sure the bike was going to run and make power. 29.2hp should do it

Can you post a copy of the Dyno graph and what you did to get it?

Ok Speedpro, Pumba and I think your on the money and are very impressed.......

This is using the "take the biggest number you have ever seen and add 0.7 HP" method of measurment methinks.

Could be........... but might not....... place your bets...

Neither Speedpro or his bike are slow. I'll keep my cash in my pocket on this one.

[bucketracer]

From what I hear, Speedpro is knocking on the door of 29 if he can cure the clutch slip, or is it knocking on the door of 30..........

hmmmm not sure now........ ...... but I remember, all the planning was done with theory and a couple of computer programs.........

What was the guy with the yellow thingy measuring for, heat?

[speedpro]

yeah. It's a little no contact infrared temp sensor. The back disk got to over 400deg and glowed. The motor bits and plumbing only got to about 60deg. Interestingly the pipe wasn't getting too hot. In comparison to other bikes on the dyno it stayed a bit cool. Possibly some sort of efficiency gains though that's hard to believe with the amount of fuel this thing uses. Fuel use is probably the clue - it's just way rich, and cool.
