Will your gearing affect dyno readings? Stock on my LTR was 14/36. Im running 12/38. Will this hurt me on the dyno?

If I'm not mistaken, I think that will just change the speed of the dyno. I believe the power curve and the peak numbers will be the same.

It can change the readout a little bit due to increased wind speeds on the tires. I suggest running tt tires on the dyno

On an inertia dyno, yes. On an eddy current torque reading dyno, no. Either way, its not much of a difference even on an inertia dyno. Id say 1 HP max.

On the inertia dyno U need to load the engine or you will not show true power...
I run all Banshee bikes around 100mph
Bikes making 50 or less I still spin the drum 75mph
