so I've been sort of pre-occupied and quiet recently, and this is the reason why..........    Its not finished yet and I've still got to sort out the exhaust fumes extraction system and reduce any potential noise impact from running bikes etc, but I am on the last leg (hopefully) and its all calibrated and I've tested it all out after re-wiring from 3 phase to single phase, so definately looking good It's identical to the dyno I have been using at John Warringtons over the past few years and John has been helping me get it sorted out, despite him calling me various names  My initial plans are to use it for sorting my own bikes out (the turbo project especially) and also setting up customers bikes that I have been doing work on, going forward I will probably look to do the odd dyno day etc, but that will depend on noise levels etc as not everybody has a dyno at home in their garage so I have to be mindful of the neighbours (to a point anyway) now that I am skint (its cost me a packet) I'll be getting back onto doing peoples work........... |

Excellent Dave, and I'm quite sure that little bit of surface rust on the roller will soon be gone and will look like polished Chrome! Enjoy.

Neat set up, good luck with it all. yeah, for now we are staying put, train company announced a new service to London go via our station in a few years, that will add some dosh onto the value of the place, so will be holding fast while that happens - would be daft to move now knowing that, especially since we are 200 yds from the golf course as well - you know what these London types are like !! |

Can't believe that's what you bought the missus for Christmas. Romance isn't dead! Hope she appreciates it!
Nice work Dave, look forward to seeing it in the flesh.

Malton must be the dyno capital of England, having 3 bike dyno places within 1 square mile, although I only rate John's (and me when I get up and running!!) |
