Dyno Day. - Page 5

I know your results for the dyno depend on altitude... but are the numbers higher or lower at sea level?

My Dyno reads less than several others who have the same bike but a slip on and I have a full system... granted I know it could be I really am putting out less... but just wondering. I really need to get it dyno tuned

Never said I was a great racer, hell, I'm signing up for my first track day next week when I get back home.

Everybody knows what'll happen except you. There's a reason why you don't see Buell in the AMA.

Not positive, but I think sea level will get you better numbers. Because the air is more dense.

make more power at sea level.
less humid, make more power.
few other weather things, but thats the main 2 i think

ummm... cause until now the only engine option was air cooled and only reved out to 6K?

Give them time. The 1125 is on par with the Duc's for handling. A couple years and I belive they'll put up a good showing.

Hell, could even be sooner. Found this on badweb.

Don't know why you're hating on the Buell so bad.
Is it cause it's a twin?
Is it cause it's (somewhat) American made?
Or is it just cause it's not what you ride....

Mr Lefty · 06-08-2008, 04:21 AM

Dlit= Mad hater status

The Yamaha R6 could be the only bike in the world, and his would still be better

Fuck that. Everybody thinks Buell is the shit because they have high torque numbers. That shit isn't gonna matter when they don't have the hp to carry them into real speeds. The 1125 is WAY better, performance wise than the older Buells and I respect that. But that upper kills me. Doesn't flow with the rest of the bike, which looks cool.

I'm actually a humble guy, but I speak my mind.

Mr Lefty · 06-08-2008, 10:18 AM

I don't think Buell is the shit... I just like Vtwins... I love the sound... and the torque is nice for everyday riding... and... with the exception of Drewpy's RC51 and I guess the 1125R... they get a little better gas milage... or at least from what I've seen.

I'm still tentive about Buell... especially with all the first year jitters in the 1125R. I think I may look pasta when my time comes...

DLIT · 06-08-2008, 10:20 AM

What an 1125 cost?
