Tech Talk: "The Dyno Game" - Apples to Apples 2017 GSX-R1000 Testing

Bench racing at its finest. “Well… my bike makes blah-blah horsepower on X dyno, so it’s faster than yours.” “No it’s not! Take that BACK!”

LOL. All forms of racing are fun, even the ones where the bikes aren’t moving. Besides, there is always something to be learned from a testing different products and configurations. Whose bike is faster in the real world? We can’t really tell, but we can see who comes out on top of the “Dyno Game”.
