Who's dyno is it on? What is the bang just as he snaps the throttle shut?

The freewheeling bit allows the computer to work out the losses in the transmission i think (or something like that) but i'm told that doing it like that can hurt your Duke depending on the type of dyno being used.

I had my ST2 on the dyno at JHP's place ages ago and he didnt do like that although it was awesome standing beside the bike in the dyno room with it running at full throttle a foot or so away from me!! Superb noise (on standard pipes) and a very strange smell of exhaust fumes.

Ask Chillo,My guess is it's his bike from last year when he had that spluttering prob at 9k revs.

Not seen the video Frank but Chillo sent me one of his dyno run and it had the hallmark cough at high revs, the fella then shuts off for a second, then cracks the throttle open, the bike coughs etc.......

If that's right then it's Chillo's bike....

.....maybe its down to the type of dyno?
