Just had a chat with Nelly & Mort on the way back from the dyno!
I don't want to spoil the suprise so you can wait a bit longer for the rather impressive results from the horses mouth!

Well.............what a day.

The video footage is done. Needs putting on a CD.........

Horsepower is where we wanted/expected it to.
YES, it cracked a 100bhp........by 0.2bhp, thats at the crank with 95 or so going to the wheel.
What is more impressive is the torque. 9.9kgm!! That's more or less the same as a 1200 Bandit and about 2kgm up on the 996 lump.
Curve was "flat" to say the least...........across about an 1800rpm band it ran directly across the axis line on the graph!
One of the runs lit the back tyre up a little which with the exhaust at full chat and the smell of burning rubber was ace.
The exhaust note is immense. The note is now deeper than just about any I've heard.
A little bit of tweaking could iron out a few small "dips" but on the whole it's very impressive. Once it's run in "properly" and the motor loosens a bit more then maybe 2 or 3 bhp will be released.

watch out for a bloke driving down the M1 in a yellow van, blue Ducati in tow and a grin as big as the windscreen.

Bloo Duke has been on the steroids. watch out

Just done some checking and the torque is about the same as a ST4S.
The ST peaks at 7800rpm and Bloo peaks at about 6800 if I remember.
somebody's got an exciting track day coming up
