Where is a bikes original max net power found?

[definitelyinc...]

I'm looking at GSXR600 SRADS and lots of people claim they're this and that and the other, some say 92bhp (most say this is rear wheel, not crank).

I've messaged some people selling the said bike, and all have said the max net power is not on their bikes V5 (like mine says 50 something KW on there), so what original power statistics would someone go by in order to find a bikes original power? Are they allowed to say one size fits all and say this is claimed so your one produces this?

Edit: This is just out of interest in case anyone knows, not buying a second bike for another good few months regardless.

The only way to find out for sure is by phoning Suzuki.

That 92 figure is taken from this https://www.mcnews.com/mcn/articles/2010JanIndex.pdf

Rear wheel figure done by the mag on a dyno.

Net engine power will be what Suzuki claims at the crank.

With it not being there could I potentially give it a run on a dyno and ask the DVLA to update the V5 by adding 70KW as the Net Power?

Nobody knows. It's not defined in statute, it's not defined in regulations, DVLA doesn't keep a register, DVLA doesn't care about your bike, and power output isn't one of the notifiable facts. It's between you, and your insurer, the copper on the scene, and/or the judiciary.

You could fill it any number you like in section 4 and send it off with a PaddyCert^tm. Costs you nothing to try.

You are getting close to A+ grade autistic.

No, you can't ride an SRAD. Stick with your lawnmower for now, wait until tests done then full powaaahhh.

Failing that, just buy a GSXR1000, might as well break the law in style.

I think they claimed 104bhp at the crankshaft?

What I don't get is why you think there is alot of variance between specific examples of this bike? They being Japanese and mass produced, probably don't vary much between different bikes picked out of a crate, but that's for zero mile all new bikes.

You can't expect a manufacturer to claim for or allow for a 10year old 600 that could have done any number of miles, and been treated in a huge variety of ways over that time.

Ok, so they dyno to register the bikes and input the V5, that's cool, and good to know, however can the V5 max net power section be modified after purchase?

I'll give a call to DVLA when I have time, this would open up a bunch of bikes that riders can get that are a tiny bit just over 94bhp.

Why would the DVLA be interested in the exact bhp of your bike?

Before you move onto bigger and better bikes OP - could you at least try to take the frankly mahoosive chicken strips off the rear tyre of your ER6 by actually cornering your current bike. K Thx.
