Re: 33bhp?
Doubt it, they just make a bit more noise with little or no power gain

Re: 33bhp?
R u sure? The exhaust pipe is meant to be used on the track only, as it say on it

Re: 33bhp?
yes because it's louder than the original and the makers haven't sent it to be noise tested

Re: 33bhp?
Regarding a Dyno center...
Anywhere on here that's close to you?
http://www.dynojet.co.uk/tuningcentres.php?type=3
And you'll be looking for around £20-£30 for a Dyno with printouts.

http://www.pcperformancebikes.co.uk/index-3.html is closest
I would have dyno in aaberdeen for free. both my friends work at Yamaha, and Honda but aberdeen is quite far :D
Found price for the dyno. Just wondering that if bike will get just over 33BHP like 34 or 35 would that be illegal to ride lookng from the side of law or to be more precise insurer

Re: 33bhp?
From what i have gathered. Insurance don't care, they won't ask for any proof of restriction etc.
The 33bhp limit is part of your license that you have to hold to. If you are over 33bhp its the DVLA who are going to come at you for riding with no licence and then your insurers will probably follow suit and get you for void insurance from not upholding to your license specifications...
...The DVLA normally don't have any tolerance.
From the trouble you are going to find getting it dyno'd with your location and that I'd have a look for a second hand set of restrictors, I picked mine up for £25 incl. p&p (from a guy on this site infact...
) which is probably what your going to have to pay for a dyno. soooo...

Re: 33bhp?
I found something. Well I will have a long weekend off after I paass my licence so with the restrictor I may visit my friend in Aberdeen (only 3-4hours riding) and get it dynoed there as many times as I want. I will dyno it before i'll fit restrictors, and after few times to get exactly 33BHP. I'll try to get as close to it as possible not exceeding 33BHP.
By the way I'll have a chance to test my bike on long trips.
Going back to price of dyno. It cost 30 pounds to get it done.
