Dyno run (thunder hill raceway)


onegin said:
I am a new rider and trying to understand the governing physics in play here. I understand you would want to shift around the 9-10k for maximum HP... but what about maximum fuel economy? Is optimal fuel efficiency achieved at optimal HP point? Is there a guide to how you should ride to optimize fuel efficiency vs. racing? I've looked online at some tools (GearingCommander) to help me understand, but word of advice from senior riders is appreciated :)

As I mentioned before my bike is stock except that I run +1 on my front sprocket (17 teeth vs 16 teeth). A few day ago I went out for a 300 KM ride and for the most time rode 90 KMH(55 MPH) to 95KMH(60 MPH) and short shifted (next highest gear) as much as I could. My combined milage (some 30 MPH but most highway) was 64.5 MPG (Imperial) or 53.7 (US Gallon)
 
I need to go back on the dyno too. I like to get some final numbers with the Viper Can. I had 70 stock, 74 with the Supertrapp (12 discs) and PCV. I'll like to think the Viper gave me another 2 or so. I just need to wait that the weather go down in the mid 50's to have number that I can compare.
 
So here's a dumb question. I have seen that everyone said the slip on tbr doesn't work on our bike. Now when I bought mine from the dealer they said it had a slip-on.. How can I figure out whether or not that is true and if I have the full set up?

If you have a TB, that mean you have a full exhaust with slip-on. The stock 6R exhaust is not a slip-on, the big can is welded to the headers... unless it got the Marthy treatment!:wav:
 
hmm maybe I should get myself a PCV or something if that is indeed the case..

Has any member or anyone in that case put a stock FZ6R on a dyno,,so we can compare graphs between stock and modded bikes. Myself I would like to see mid-range comparisons.. Laurie

I think there's a video on YouTube where one runs a stock 6r on a dyno.

It vary dyno to dyno, weather... I got 70 HP stock, 74 with Supertrapp (12 discs) and PCV. Never had the change to go back with the Viper before the end of the winter. I need to go back on the same dyno when the weather will be back in the mid 50's. There's a noticeable gain in power with the Viper on the top end... I eyeball 76-77 maybe. Then I might try one more trick in my sleeve... :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::D

I got 68 from the back to back dyno run (Stock vs. Supertrapp 8 discs) without the PCV. -2HP at peak power but decent gain in the mid range.

I have put my stock 6R on the dyno. Oh and that is my bike on youtube. Here is picture of my graph. 63.33 HP and max torque is 36.44. I have not had my bike back on the dyno since I did all the upgrades.

Oh sweet, I was wondering if you were on here! :thumbup:
 
Thanks very much Funkmaxtor... here are the 2 graphs (Rooks 6R + Funk's 6R)

I know different Dyno's give different results but I just want to compare.
 
Sometime I hope to get back on the dyno now that I am done modding for performance. But right now I have a broken 7.3 Powerstroke that I need to spend money on. :(

But with the Powerstroke broken I did get the opportunity to go grocery shopping with my 6R! Haha... Got a few looks with that one.
