well, as some of you will know, Andy (marsbar350) and Mick (RDLC Lazy) have had an ongoing spat for a while about who's bike is the best, well last Saturday was the time of truth
The final results are very close (0.4bhp between them) although one bike is producing slightly more torque than the other.
The graph below shows a 1Bhp difference, this is simply because these are the 2 best graphs to demonstrate how close they are in reality and how they both track virtually identically on the power curve, the max power figures for each had slight variances due to the way I opened the throttle etc and also the starting RPM, that's the only reason these 2 graphs have been used instead of the 2 max power ones (although Andy's graph does show his max power made on Saturday)
Final figures for the 2 bikes where;
Andy's 49.3bhp, 31.6ft-lb's torque (Blue Line)
Micks 48.9bhp, 33.9ft-lbs of torque (Red Line)
They are both down slightly on what max power they could make because it was very hot in the dyno room on Saturday, some 12 farenheit warmer than last years tests

Let the sniping begin !!

- all that torque and a skinny runt like Mick onboard and his biggest problem will be keeping the bloody front wheel on the tarmac !
