A good healthy motor should put out around 58bhp but all dyno's vary

I would try and get the bike to be running optimally before it's taken for a dyno run. You'll save $$ in the end by getting the jetting nearer to correct before you take it in. If you can't do that then the dyno operator will, but dyno time = $$.

Treat the dyno run like any decent road blast: good oil, lubed chain, tyre pressure etc.

Lets see the results.

Check the last couple of pages of the 'offical dyno day' thread for videos / pictures and other info about the dyno day last weekend.

I think most vfr400's ranged between 53-60bhp.

As stickshift said, set it up as best you can before going there to save time / money. Chain clean / lubed not too tight, tyres correct pressure, brakes not binding.
