Hello everyone. Just came back from getting a baseline Dyno run to know exactly how my bike is running. (Just to recap, I decided to alter the stock exhaust based on what I've read, learned from other riders, tuners, etc. Also didn,t want to mess with the stock engineering factors for this type bike.) I compared my results with stock values obtained by Rider Mag in a road test article. Stock Values: Max HP=65.9 @ 9800 rpm, Max Torque=39.1 @ 8300 rpm. After exhaust mod: HP=75 @ 10400 rpm, Max torque= 40 @ 9000 rpm.
These are modest improvements but I needed to know if I improved anything other than sound and if I made anything worse? I did find out that my bike runs lean to about 7000 rpms, which I understand to be common. (Also exhaust mods like mine can produce dips in the power curve if U FU, but I didn't.) Anyway a PC would help me along with dyno mapping directly.
If you can get to Infineon Raceway, Sonoma, CA, find JTS Performance, 707-996-6103. These guys get bikes from everywhere, even Australia, and Jim has done 218 mph on his modified Buell at Bonneville. Very knowledgeable, addicted to performance, connected, and initial baseline runs are free!
Once I get this dialed in, I will do some suspension mods set up for my riding preferences. Just love to ride......U Know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumbup:
