Hey Guys i went past motorcycle perfomance shop called 10 TENTHS out at Warwick FARM he has a Dyno. I ask if he would be intrested if a bunch of as came down for the dyno run,and he said yes. Depending on numbers he is even prepered to open on a Sunday.
Costs around about $50.00 for 3 Dyno runs for about 10 bikes if there is more he will Discuont.

What do you guys think

It's certainly worth keeping in mind. Parramatta Kawasaki are working out a price for me but I haven't heard anything out of Sydney Dyno. MadKaw has TJs on the case, so I guess we'll decide who we want to do it with as a group. Mabye if once all the options are sorted a poll?

Surely we can get it a bit cheaper than $50? I have seen those dyno comps before where you only pay like $20 or something.

i've done a few car ones with groups,
norla rate is about 50 bucks
you get :
-3 power runs
-printout of your best run
-sausage sizzle

and one place gave you a hat.

another gave you a pile of car mags, coz they got a journo to come and do a story.

Just a suggestion guys how about a prize for best & smoothest power curve to level things out for the smaller bikes

I pay my mechanic with beer, unfortunately i dont trust me with tools when totally drunk. Let alone negotiating the stairs into my unit afterwards.

The smoothest power curve come on, I didnt work the shit out of my GPX to have a smooth power curve I can tell ya !! It is smooth betwen 10K and 12K though.
I'm after big numbers only !!
Any new bike with no mods will have a smooth power curve.
I think it should be age related like best 70's, 80's, 90's and 00's.
The formula from mike s was OK I thought ??
Or how about you divide you hp out put by the width of your rear tyre, like say a ZX10 has 180hp through a 190 section or a GPX with 130hp through a huge 140 mm rear !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No really I just want to see what all my money has reaped and to see if it has all been worth it (I know it has my wife dont)??

Ok. It's looking like TJ perforance is a goer. So when do you guys want to do it? He needs at least two weeks notice, and we're looking at $40 a head.

Edit.. Will he open on Sunday.. you can do it on the 11th.??

Its only 15 minutes away for me so I'm fine almost anytime...

Not sure on the Sunday thing, but yeah that'd work well for Mick and I. He still wants someone to come down there face to face so I was kinda wonderin' if you'd put your hand up for that?

Post by **MadKaw** » Fri May 26, 2006 6:22 pm

Yeh thats fine.
Once we confirmed numbers and a date I'll go and have a chat...

You might want to start making a list of attendees...

Right then Mick C and I are going to be in town on the 11th and 12th for CSS at the creek so that'd be easy for us if TJ will go for Sunday the 11th of June. How does this stand with you guys?
