Probably youve all seen, i hadnt. Great talk thru i thought. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG4uzaQlUnQ
I see they picked the best year, colour & exhaust. No wonder they think it's quick.
The most optimistic dyno too, most I've seen for a 14 with Akra is 123bhp.
@Hooli if anyone wants to pay me to get mine a dyno session we can find out how many pony powers a black & red + Akro full system + Yoshi Stage 1 cams =
I can't use the 100 h.p. mine might have.
Agree Irish, dont ride for a month, get back on, feels like 200 sometimes.

About 135bhp I'd say, seems to be what others get.
Obviously they use smaller horses on B/R bikes to bump the figures up though :lol:
Just a perspective on dyno's
All of them vary slightly depending on things like the weather and then operator's skill and even how many times its been used in the recent past . Even the same bike in exactly the same spec will give a different reading on the same dyno but on different days .
The numbers night vary a bit (more later) but the shape of the graph should be the same and that's the main thing .
Variations in dynos
My k6
4°ignition advanced
Pod filters
St1 yoshi cams
Full akroprovic system
Pairs removed
50k miles
It's had between 131bhp and 140bhp depending dyno and places it's been done .
The graph is always the same shape it rides great .
So finally it's not all about the big number .
A mate had gsx1400 very similar spec to mine but with regrind cams both bikes had on the same dyno on the same day had 136bhp but his graph had a massive hole in the mid range(still stronger than a standard bike) and rode very differently .
Just my 10p worth on the whole dyno thing . :cheers:
