OK i know it hard to compare different dyno's but my old 2000 SPS managed 120 bhp

David don't be disheartened, using different scales (SAE, DIN ,EC etc) on the same dyno can make about 2% difference depending on which measurement is used.

Just seen a Haynes book 'Ducati 916' by Ian Falloon's which lists the specs for all models and says that both the 1999 and 2000 996SPS models made 123bhp at the crank???

No, don't think so - 120 - ish was the power at the wheel (according to my italian Motociclisomo Ducati book.

Never had my SPS dyno'd but (like you David) it feels powerful enough to me.

That's odd - the Ducati Owner's Manual says 123bhp at the crank as well
