:rock Not sure on the codec Looney...just a regular mpeg. I broke her in a little of both, more mototune though.

It had about 150 miles on it when we did it. I babied it for the first maybe 40 miles, nothing over 10,000, still full throttle though. Then, from there on out, I've been ringing the piss out of it. Dropped the oil tonight at 250 miles, still using 10w40 petroleum based till at least 600 miles.

The chain was tight when I bought it. I should say correct amount of play...150 miles on this beast and she was that loose...I have since tightened it up, thanks for lookin out! The bike continues to get more powerful and I think if I did another base line run at 1,000 miles after it loosens up a bit we might see high 150's still bone stock. Then let the exhaust and pciii games begin. I think I will go graves as I have a hook up.



Thanks again for all the awesome information on this sight!:jump

Great pics and awesome bike.

Your rwhp numbers are higher because the dyno sheet was run in "Standard" rather than "SAE" corrected. This is a common tuner trick to make the customer happier.

I am sure your bike is strong--just not that strong.

No flames intended!

Thanks for the post. Something I've been looking for.

Also, I think it's funny that the guy in the back ground working on the 50, seems unaffected by a 150+ hp machine screaming in his ear. Don't let that guy work on you bike, he likes to make things SMOKE!!!

hehehe

Venemous:

It says "Standard" on the Dyno axis printout. If it was SAE, it would say it there. Again, I am sure it is a strong bike, but Standard shows higher numbers than SAE, which is consistent with this dyno reading higher.
