I will aim to stay below 680 deg C at WOT - today we had max. 580 on the dyno runs

Thank you Smoker for re-posting these pics. They show the very first dyno run last year.

That sir is a beautiful bike! Among many great things about it is the faring fitment. Looks like it grew there. Well done.

What a piece of art. I've been watching your builds for quite a time. If I may ask - what is the reasoning behind the silencers from the lower cylinders being so short? They look too short to me to be period authentic. And - do they pass the scrutineers at the track?

Thanks for sharing this beautiful build. It's an inspiration to us not at the same level.

Regards

Hi Knut,
I have genuine silencers from a YZR500 works bike as ridden by Wayne Rainey on my other YZR500 replica (the orange ANTENA3 bike), and they are the exact same dimensions

best regards

Wolfgang

The dyno graphs posted above are from last year, the first runs after completing the engine. I wanted to share this week´s dyno charts resulting in 119,1PS but Photobucket does not allow me to share with 3rd party.

If you still have access to your Photobucket account (with no 3rd party sharing), go ahead and post the pics. I can fix them.

Or you may want to try using postimage.org. No need to sign up. :smt003

Thanks Smoker, here it is:

Picture shows the last 3 dyno runs - the green one with less peak power was with PV fully open earlier,
