y2k dyno run

So I rode to the local Honda shop this morning just to look around and the were having an open house. Around back I spot a dyno and say to myself, hmmm I wonder. So $20 and three pulls later here's what we got....

96.35 hp and 128 mph in 4th gear. Assuming 15% parasitic loss that comes to 110.8 at the crank.
the bike: 2000 Interceptor - Yoshimura pipe - K & N - 12,299 miles
the weather: a sunny 78 degress - 32% humidity

The dyno operator commented on the smoothness of the pulls and the power it had. He said he had nevered tested a VFR before. She sounded like she pulled smooth and even all the way up. They ran a fairly new R6 after mine, it reved kinda slowly then kicked in hard, he pulled 110 hp for those curious.

sweet. I can easily say my motors worth 100hp. Nice. Can you scan the papers so I can see the chart?

Those are the most realistic numbers I've ever seen posted on this site, for that I commend your honesty. The 110 hp for the r6 is very questionable......

They were giving away a free tire to the highest hp in each class. Cruiser, 600, and 1000 up. They put mine the 600 class. Unfortunately the R6 did pull 110hp at the rear wheel. I watched the run and looked at the print out. It didn't have a stock pipe and I didn't think to ask what else was done. Judging by "the crew" he was hanging with, I'd bet at least a power commander. I'll have to see if I can get my print out scanned somewhere.

Cool, Viffer. Sounds like you went to browse at just the right time.
Now, remember all you other color/other gen owners...This is a YELLOW VFR. So don't be thinking all of your bikes will be equal to that. Sorry.

I also have K&N and exhaust, and about the same mileage. So if his motor put our 110.8 crank, then I can easily assume mine would do the same, since we have the same make/model.

Made a slight error, senior moment I guess.....that R6 pulled 106 not 110. I had 10 on the brain cause the bastage bet me by 10. I was talking to a guy at the Honda shop, he still had the charts because they have to give out the tires to the winners.
