I finally made it to a dyno. I went on a Sunday ride and accidentally found a 1/4 mile track that was having a bike fest. Stunt show and the works... great time! They also had a Dyno Jet trailer set up and for $60 they would do 3 pulls and tune your bike. Wow... the local boys are asking $60 for a base line and $300 to $400 if I ask for any adjustments. Good news. I used the available made from Dynojet's website and my bike didn't need any adjustments (or so they said). I believe them because all they had to do was connect the USB cable to my PC III and adjust away. They spent more time afterwards BS'ing and giving me free drinks and snacks talking about how they were bored with playing with choppers all day. Here's the stats...

I'm Dyno illiterate so I'm going off what they told me, so if anyone can explain in more detail, please do so. I believe the 600RR has an acclaimed 103-104HP depending on where you do your research, so this will show you what you get by adding a PC III, slip=on and K&N filter

This first image is the HP and MPH stats. The red line is full power through all gears with a top speed of 160 MPH and 109HP.
The blue line is 4th gear pull only showing almost 150 MPH and 104HP




This image is the fuel/air stats. Again, it's from the 4th gear pull and this is the one that shows them my bike is running right.

 

nice, sorry i dont know how to read them very well either, the first one made sense, but the second one got me.

 

the air/fuel ratio should be fairly consistent....i know in cars it should run around 10.5/11...looks like its a bit different for the CBR running at around 13/13.5 hmm...

 

That's good a/f on a dyno -- in real life conditions you'll have ram air that will affect the ratio (and add power) -- that little extra fuel is just cheap insurance from holing a piston. I wouldn't be concerned about the #s below 60mph -- looks like he was lugging it big time. Nice dyno -- 10 years ago I would've called you a liar if you said a 600 put 109HP on the ground

 

10.5/11 in cars? maybe turbo cars runnin like 20 psi...:P

 

if you go to the http://www.powercommander.com web site. what are these things called maps? http://www.powercommander.com/supphonmaps.shtml

 

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!

 

Proeve,

I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but the maps change the fuel delivery schedule in the fuel injection system. They are the carburetor's equivalent of re-jetting. Fuel injection schedules the fuel delivery using a lot of parameters like throttle position, RPM, and reading from mass airflow, eng temp, etc... You can change the exhaust on a fuel injected bike and then upload a new fuel injection map to make the most of the exhaust. If you serious, i hope that makes sense, and if you were joking, sorry for the novel.

 

Well said Sparky. You have to choose a map to use with a Power Commander and pick one that best matches your bike/equipment. The ones on the website are "supposed to be" general enough to match most setups. All slip ons "can use" the ones posted. For example, there's only one map for the 05 600RR with a slip on and I used that one. It cost me $60 on the dyno to see if it was right. They would have tuned it if it was off any. With a PC III USB, all they have to do is run the dyno and hook it to a PC and change the settings with the push a button. The one I used didn't need any adjustments and now I have piece of mind that my bike is set up right.

 

no I was not joking thank you for the info,, I am still new to this,, so please forgive me.. ill have to look into a PC when I get better at riding..
