Thank you it's been hard work and I've done it on a tight budget if anyone wants to do it I'd suggest plan a year ahead buy your clamps and clips and pipe , parts etc over a year

I think it's a carb problem one float keeps sticking up so no fuel so going just check the wiring and new plugs and I've bought some carb repair kits but typical didn't get chance for them as when I rode it last it was fine Sod's law , it was running 9 psi still boosted but was on 3 cylinders 168 bhp the bloke it's a strong one and will be looking at 200 plus easy

Still like you say, 168 is good for 3 cylinders. :thumbup: Even better on 4. |

Tell you what though I don't believe any dyno figures any more unless It's set up right he showed us just by messing with a few parameters my mates bike went from 208 to 400 bhp he reckoned this is how engine builders make their bikes look good, crazy and the bike gets put through some stick make sure your chain is good

Bloody typical mate, if it goes wrong it'll go wrong just when you don't want it to.
I'm sure you'll sort it out, here's hoping it's something simple.
Yes, dyno figures should be taken lightly, you can easily lose on the tyre spinning up to, the accuracy of the calibration of the dyno, the input figures of the operator, etc.
It'll still be enough to put a smile on ya face whatever it ends up being.

Cheers mate the main thing of a dyno to me anyway your up close to the bike and get see and hear properly what your bike is doing under load , you can't do that riding it looking down with your helmet on or unless you have to do the old plug chop method on the two strokes like I used to. But it means carrying jets and spanners

Deffo bud, it's a very good diagnostic tool and has taken out a lot of the guess work to the point of greater accuracy than we could have ever done. Quite scary though next to it eh.  Ha ha. |

A dyno, like any tool, is only as good as the operator. The best way is, Always use the same dyno. Look at what you had last time. Look at what you came in with and what you left with. The actual numbers aren't that important. Fookin' nice bike BTW.  |
