Title: Best Tire/Wheel Combo for Dyno Testing
Post by: Good on December 31, 2009, 09:03:41 AM

Well, what do you think is the best combo to get accurate numbers, and btw, Trinity Racing in Rancho Cucamonga, CA is having a free dyno day on January 9th.  It would be interesting to see some numbers from members here and elsewhere. :-D

I'd be there if my bike was running... :cry:

you have to run  a street tire we just use a cheap chin shin , the knobby tire won't stay planted on the drum . My bike blew the tire free when the power kicked in so we ran ty downs from each side of the swingarm to hooks in floor and had to ratched them down to keep it from spinning on the dyno drum. CBX
