The Great R6 (re)Build

[dubbs]

There's no way your only making 6hp more then me.. I only have an ignition advancer, air filter, jets, and slip on exhaust.. your bike should of been making 20 more hp then mine stock.. I had mine done on a dynojet too..

There's a guy out here who owns a dyno shop. I was at the track today and he just did a '07 R6, same exhaust, PC3 and an air filter. He only got 105 out of it. He said no bike is the same, he's seen this one guys and he gets 116 at the wheel on a '06 R6. And he did another guy's bike that had the identical mods done to it as the R6 pushing 116 and he could only get it to 109. I wonder what mine would do since it dynoed at 108 and it was stock back then. He was able to get the torque nice and flat though, just like your bike.

I don't really care, it doesn't mean anything since I don't have a run from before the mods.

Yeah it was pretty hot and humid that day.

Not to mention that since his dyno is in a trailer, by the time he was doing the full throttle pulls at the end after the tune, I guarantee it was well over 100 and humid in the trailer. Dude was sweatin' pretty good.

Yeah every dyno is different... It doesn't really mean anything.

What I would be interested to see is

1. a dyno run of my bike before the mods.
2. a dyno run of your bike with the same ambient conditions on Rob's dyno.

Those might mean something.


Based on what Rob said, this was a good pull for this bike.

He said guys with supersport built motors are putting down 120. He tunes a lot of the fast guys at Loudon. He knows his stuff...

The bottom line is every bike is different. I wonder how much engine break in comes into play?

apparently the way you break your bike in can cause a 10% hp difference...

They or you can adjust for that if you have the info. There is a standard that you can correct your numbers to.

OH and I don't like the rubber bungee on the exhaust!! WTF
