My stock 6r showed142bhp on a dyno that showed my 1030cc YB8 at around 130bhp. When I say stock, the 6r has an after-market exhaust and filter but no big bore.

Bastid !!! Very Happy

Originally mine showed 100 and wouldn't move for love nor money (I tried both) I reckon it was a Frenchie bike

Ok most of the bikes built in the early 90's that were of European origin suffered "euro emission law" that means they were capped at 100hp/ps. So they made the power curve fat through the mid range to keep buyers happy & not going to jap bikes. I did extensive work to my SB6 only to reveal 130 at the back door. So my mate who has the dyno conferred with me on this point. The SB6 has a 'bus stop' in the form of the air box. It's big enough but no flow. You really need to slot the cams & dial them in. Magic #s are 106/108...10. That engine is capable of 220rwhp aspirated. Like I have said b4 throw a CDI from a 1991 750 & that will raise the ceiling. When you are failing the cams get the new head gasket & drill the rivets out & only use one shim,making sure to seal the non treated surface. Good luck.

Bimota used low lift cams to limit the bike to 100 brake but yeah its airbox that's the problem after that
