dyno results for zr550

25 Mar 2017 08:27

I'm pretty pleased - 52 rwhp on a 550 with ~40K miles. This is after installing a Kerker race exhaust, K&N filter and re-jetting. Wish I'd had the bike dyno'd before for comparison. In theory these bikes came stock with 50 hp but that was likely measured at the crank. I can definitely feel a performance increase from the mods - have to fight now to keep the front wheel down when shifting into 2nd at redline.

Nice! 52 hp at the rear wheels is outstanding! Bet that thing is a blast to ride!

Enjoy!
