I was just wondering how much power is my bike putting out roughly? Bearing in mind that at full power it's probably 50/60hp, at the moment it's been restricted using a throttle stop and the throttle turns about a quaterish. No mods apart from 'slip on' Termis

Get a dyno run... about £25 or so.

Think I paid £30 odd.

Behold the results:

My print out is at home (at university atm)... it was around 2 years ago when I got it done.

Now I have taken the restrictors out I want to get anther run to see the difference (or lack off).... but don't really want to spend £25 odd to find out.

Ask Derren Brown, maybe his mentalist skills include being "The Human Dyno"...

I can see it now, your revving the bike, he concentrates hard, hands on his temples, gets in the zone, "About 34bhp mate, just adjust the throttle stop a bit more". The adjustment is done, the bike is revved once more, The Human Dyno concentrates again, "33bhp, spot on."

You wouldn't get a printout on the cert tho, just some NLP pattern worded along the lines of "imagine you're looking at a printout of power curve that peaks perfectly at 33bhp..." so any copper would swear blind he saw a cert with the dyno printout, when in reality he didn't, he just thought he did, on the cert signed, "Git Wizard, The Human Dyno"

+1 to sicky.

Far too many variables. The same bike on the same dyno will give out different results on each and every run usually. So many different factors.

25-30 bhp. I suspect though.
