Dyno results

I spent the day at Dynotech having a Power Commander mapped on the MV.
It peaked at 128.69 hp at the wheel, which I thought was pretty good for
a 750. I think that's a tad more than the latest model GSXR. Just
thought I'd share that.

A whole day? Mapping? Well there you go.

I guess the 'point six nine' is important. So what was the torque to
go with that?

> I think that's a tad more than the latest model GSXR.

rwhp or quoted?

Well ok, from about 9.45 til sometime after 3. And 'mapping' was the
point of the visit, but there were a few delays for various reasons
including power cuts, inaccessible LT leads, & use of the wrong wire
coming out the TPS (how was I to know there are 2 white wires with green
tracers... I'm a muppet). Plus Keith does like to talk a bit...

That 'point six nine' could make all the difference when trying to get
past that lorry before hitting the combine harvester coming the other
way!

Re the torque, pass.

I believe the last group test I saw with the gixer stated 127. That must
be rwhp.

The point six nine was probably inserted to demonstrate accuracy.

Not since her last race, in 1986 or 7.

Just under 10,000 km, which would mean 7-8,000 on the second
crank. It's a hard way to (re-)discover that Suzuki oil pumps' drive
is interrupted by the clutch...

The lawn, of course, has two holes in it.
