According to the Parkitt Dyno I won at Brands with 43bhp. After a little bit of work last week the little DD bike has been on the rolling road showing a healthy 51bhp. Just think what I can do with all that extra power!!!!


(I have actually only found an extra 2bhp from the 49 I already had, but for some reason the Parkitt dyno had me down for 43!!)

So with my wheezy 53 you should be right along side me then Ron.

You will be AWESOME.

wait a minute sarcasm always comes back to bite you in the arse.

I'll shut up now.

[Jolley]

No excuse not to keep up with you at Mallory then!!

[bradders]

was that the track dyno? It was showing under remember unless corrected...if not that under a minute for Mallory then

[numbskull]

I think I may struggle a little with my 48bhp then!

I'll ride along side you Neal, as thats what mine is/was, sort of ...I think.

Yes, after the second race. I am pretty sure that was the corrected figure! It was showing Kev P had 10bhp more, where I know for a fact at the time he only had 4bhp more. If he did have 10bhp more he needs some riding lessons if he let me stay with him

Neal, I shouldn't worry about "only 48bhp". I did alright at Brands with "only 49" (or 43 if you believe the Parkitt dyno!! )

I am fairly sure a recent study has shown that every time you remove the engine you lose 2bhp.... so probably only 46 now Ghosty!

encouraging that even a big weight disadvantage and only 49 bhp means I can stay with most in a straight line....even those waif jockey like ones
