| New Dynojet Dynamometer Installed |
 |
|
What is a dynamometer? Also called a “dyno” for
short, a motorcycle dynamometer measures torque at
the bike's rear wheel. By combining torque with rpm in
a calculation it determines the horsepower of the
running engine. Recorded measurements at different
speeds creates a horsepower curve. Our Dynojet
can also measure the air to fuel ratio.
We have just installed a new Dynojet dynamometer in
our service department and with the addition of this
diagnostic tool our service department will be able to
tune your bike to ride at its absolute highest level of
performance.
