I'd like to see dyno runs of those various set ups kev, wonder if the compulsary ones could be made public with accompanying notes, its only club racing after all

The torque curve is impressively flat on that 848, compared to my ss.

You can get them very flat on the 583. Here is a pic of mine.

Yes just a dyno run on JHP's dyno. No setup by them, just as I built it.

Felt more Phil, and looked more!

Re Chris, having been in close quarters a bit, incredibly smooth and very high corner and exit speed coupled with a good bike, meaning the extra t end power didnt have that much of an affect until end of the main straigt really

hoping the straights of Snetterton means I won't have to follow him much next time out! But no guarantees.....

Following could be useful but Snett in its current form will be new to him.

Look up 6 hats thinking Kev this is a white not a black hat suggestion.....

Seemed a great way to stop over tuning then using other mechanical or electrical components to 'cheat' (term used loosely before anyone gets the arse!) the engine/rules etc

Re baseline, for B wouldn't that be a 583 of any age with stage 2 kit filter and dynotjet no air box lid and open can, with cam timing probably good for 51 ish so inside the rules but not on them

For A similar; PC turned so the AF is at a specified level (eg 13:1) with race can/s high flow filter with air box on

Again good for 62 ish I'd imagine so same within rules but far enough away a little more work can be done

Isn't this what the no tuning rule was kind of meant to do; stop hidden work affecting the performance without having to constantly protest bikes?

Only a thought

Other than the Bike I protested at Cadwell and the one at the Snetterton event that I didn't attend in the early days oof DD before max Power figures were in the rules where is this constantly protesting of bikes

Lots of complaints about Alan's old bike at Brands, but I didn't notice anybody heading for the race office with protest fee in hand.

As for Dyno figures I have seen all the Class A bikes that posted Dyno figures at Brands were less than the #7 bike as posted on Facebook, if I took Awesomes Chart as the base, probably 80 to 90% of the Class A bikes would be deemed as making excessive power and many of them were struggling to keep pace with a legal Class B bike
