What makes a dyno look like this?

Recommended Posts

Roller shaft bearing repeatedly seizing on the dyno?

Or otherwise intermittent interruption of the power data.

As in some sort of mechanical or electrical failure of the dyno readings.

edit: it does look like it's shifting gears...

It is shifting from 1st to 4th gear. There are two lines there for your before and after runs.

But why does it show smooth for some and not smooth for others? How does the 2nd bike go to 105 without any shift points in the Dyno? Or is it Dyno settings? ie, you can have it ignore the brief dip?

looks like they are spinning the rear wheel on the shifts?

OOOOOO

Is that common? I honestly didn't think it was possible to "chirp" the tires on a dyno since the dyno wheel spins too.

Got this off Brian's site, does the quality of Dyno have anything to do with it, on Brian's a big jump doesn't spin it seems.

Googled some dyno charts, and the RPM vs Time shifting charts look something like the first chart.

The second chart looks like two pulls in a single gear. Really smoothed data.

The third chart shown looks like two pulls, one with a hit on the NOS?

So do you START in 5th gear and just rev it? (Obviously you can't get to 105 MPH in 1st gear) (it's a cruiser btw, not a super bike)

And yes, last chart is with NOS, but looks like 1 gear as you mentioned before, start in high gear, rev it to redline then hit NOS?

Where's Brian when we need him, or Schmuckingham. I don't know which gear they pull in for a single gear. But that's what it looked like at the Dyno days. It sounded like they upshifted a few times, and then pulled in a single gear from a low RPM to create the data.

The first graph is a 1st through 5th gear run.

The second is a 4th gear run.

4th gear is used for tuning purposes because it's closest to a 1:1 ratio.

Each graph shows two separate pulls.

That would explain starting at 20. Thanks for the answers guys, this has been bugging me and I was curious to know!
