Performance Reports

The technical reports, including all those previously published on the Moto One site.

The reports you find here are written from work I have done on customer bikes (and demo bikes) here at Brad The Bike Boy or while at Moto One and my own bikes.  Currently they are a Ducati ’89 851 and ’97 600m with 750 engine, and previously Moto Guzzi Sport 1100i, BMW R1100S and R1150R, Ducati 888, 900M and ST2.  I never bothered to dyno the Guzzi Eldorado (GT850) and the mighty KR1S 250 is not really relevant, although it did make 50 Hp.

To see reports for a particular model of bike, choose from the list below.  The index starts with Aprilia, followed by Ducati, Bimota, BMW, Moto Guzzi and MV Agusta.  There’s a quick jump menu below.

Past them towards the bottom of the index there is also a couple of reports detailing the way I dyno test and tune bikes and how this relates to the result the owner will feel.  All the dyno work I do is carried out on the same Dynojet 200 (I think) owned by Dynobike and the SAE correction factor is used for all published dyno runs.
