Correct dyno loads during testing?
« on: January 17, 2009, 01:42:42 PM »
Hello people.  Took my CB750 F2 for a dyno run last week.  Found out a few things like running rich.  I was wondering, how do I know that the guy who set up the bike on the dyno put the correct loads on the bike?  He mention that he strapped the bike down 40kg and then plus his weight on the bike say 75kg and then he also put load on the actual machine (dyno).  The guys were talking up how their dyno was the best and they set it up correctly etc.  Seemed like they were blowing smoke up their own tail pipe.  Needless to say that I don't trust them.  At least they let me in the room where the dyno was.

Any thoughts?
