Looks way rich on the second dyno, that is probably the bafflle

A dyno is a wonderful tool , but keep in mind as soon as you start paying someone to dyno your bike... you will run into people that tweak the dyno, to get the highest HP numbers...because that is what sells

Dyno's only measure torque...HP is a math formula.

HP is somewhat an American thing...many country's don't use HP...they use KW or even calories.

Thanks guys, I know the HP/Tq story. I really don’t care about peak HP. All I was looking for in this thread was what comparable setups were making on other bikes. That’s all - just to see if I was far off from what I should expect with the mods listed.

Thanks all.
