i have a friend thats betting me a dyno run that a stock 2000 model zx12r with 37000kms on the clock will make less than 150hp at the wheel.
i think its win win either way i get a dyno run.

Depends on the dyno and the condition of the bike, but I reckon it should get over 150hp no worries

a stockie???

imho..
I reckon will be less than 150..but not by much
tyre friction chain drag and transmissioin losses
will drag it down under


could be wrong ...but


cheers

Ya should be safe i'd say. Most dyno's run a bit on the optomistic side as well.

160ish RWHP on a Dynojet machine..

165ish RWHP on a Dyno Dynamics machine..

They are my guesses... Go do it and see how close i am ..

those unrestricted models are not allowed on most dyno's, as they tend to throw the drive-drum out of balance !!



You should have no dramas getting at least 150hp at the rear out of a stocker. What happened with the dyno run anyway ??

..too much hp.....

I had my 06 ZX12R dynoed before I went to Phillip Island WSBK. Roo Racing carbon can, DNA filters and PC3 Power Commander.

169.5 hp at the rear wheel and over 100Nm of torque. Jamie from Bikecare at Adamstown did the numbers.

P.S.

20000kms on the clock

dyno'd my 05 ZX12R on a dyno dynamics dyno and it had 171.6 rear wheel Hp with yoshi can k&n air filter and power commander on Mobil 98

in A1 model a 182 hp at the wheel, may be optimistic bench.

my kawis foto's in my page's, welcome, sorry it's only in finish

and the one dog is acd, you know, hehiö

When i had the 12 it was dynoed on a Dyno Dynamics at 180 Rwhp..

On a Dynojet dyno it produced 174 Rwhp..

174rwhp for me.... mods as below.

When my A1 was completely stock it made 158hp at the wheel. Not sure on the dyno, would have to find the print out. IMO if it makes below 150hp there's something wrong with the bike! I've had it on two other dynos and it always makes over 160hp (slip on pipe and PCIII).

mines only making 167 with k&n's pc3 and slip on, but 198 with gas

Don't stock zx12r's put out 180hp at the wheel?,or just a myth
