NO i don't have the dyno sheet but i did see it.

143 hp from a dis appointed zx10 owner.
So disappointed that he didn't even show up to ride this week.
To kawi's defence the bike only had 350 kms.
Goes to show how all the mags are full of shit.:finger

IMO dyno runs and sheets are good for your own knowledge of your bike. But each dyno is slightly different, plus conditions make a big difference too. So what one dyno says another one could say something different. Plus hes really early in the breakin stage too. I'm going to dyno my bike on the same dyno and hopefully same conditions so I can see if my mods do anything or not.

Not so fast speedy! Most likely, if the other liter bikes were dynoed on that dyno, on the same day, they would also be low. If the mag tests were same day, same dyno, they are in fact relevant.

we did one with my 04 and an 04 zx 10. mine 200 miles his 500
one right after each other. he was disappointed as well. mine was 146.7 and his on zx10 was 140.5. he also used gps on it for top speed. it went 170mph topped out. again he wasnt happy. each dyno is different. i live at 3200 ft elevation and air sucks here.

On top of all that mentioned above, factories use engine dynos when releasing power figures. Wheel dynos are good for tuning of bikes and cars and also to see certain gains and losses by certain mods but they aren't a good source to use when it comes to comparing hp figures unless the dyno runs are made on the same dyno back to back.

Not to sound like a jack ass, but I find it strange that people are bummed on 140+ hp on fresh engines, on bike that factory spec weight is 375... crazy to me. I understand that if people are buying a bike with 180 crank hp they expect to get it, or the near 160 rwhp they assumed they were buying. As said before there are alot of variables in the dyno game. Tires can even affect it... Those kind of hp numbers 4-5 years, and on chassis like we a buy out of the crate is insane... we getting jaded or what???

What a complete Stroker
:lol

Too dissapointed to show up to ride after he saw the dyno :boom

Must have wanted to stay at home and cry while trying how to figure out how to get more HP so he can tell all his mates how much power his bike has got.:butt

A race tech shop through southren California Triumph. My friend is a sponsored racer for So cal triumph, and he was dyno tuning his bike, and they asked if I wanted to through my bike on the thing for free and I said **** yeah.
