8750 is exactly what Ducati claim, mine made peak of 113bhp at 9400 and was still giving 110 at 10100. This was with standard pipes and filter, just the cams dialled. John did it for me himself at the 6000 service and charged me about £50 I think. JHP always take the cams out when they service a bike since as John says 'how else can you check the rockers?'
He uses a Superflow dyno which is noted to be a/ accurate, and b/ give lower figures than just about any other dyno-it's also what the factory use-nuff said.
Should be interesting if you are bringing your ST4S to Cadwell, they can hussle round there pretty well.
I have to agree with your earlier statement that the best value is to mod suspension but the '4S only needs to be set up properly not modded. In my opinion the best mod is to the brakes. I put the new 4 pad calipers on mine-awesome brakes, welcome to the world of 1 finger stoppies!!
