Heres mine. As you can see there is a direct correlation between the money leaving my wallet and the happiness on my face...

A few months after having my bike Hilltopped I took it to an independent tuners and had them do me a printout to see if there had been any changes.

As you can see, there is a direct correlation between the smiles on my face and the increasing number of speeding points appearing on my driving licence..

Recently I went to a different tuner type place and they printed me this graph.

As you can see, there is a direct correlation between the increased number of points on my licence, and the sadness appearing on my face..

I then contacted the DVLA and asked them to provide me with a graph.

As you can see, there is a direct correlation between the increased sadness on my face, and their increased profits..

As mentioned, there are loads of graphs already posted on this site. The reason why I can't be bothered to post mine, is because they're no different to any others that have been posted. Why you can't be bothered to search?

Needle/haystack. A simple and helpful copy/paste here would suffice instead?
 
I haven't had mine done but I will do. I'll be frank in saying I do not believe it will add 20+hp,that seems ridiculous .
I do believe it'll smooth out the curves to take account of the Akra exhaust and remove some of the restrictions placed upon BMW with the way are forcrd to map/fuel the bike for type approval etc.
I'll get it dyno'd before and after elsewhere for comparison purposes.

It feels like only a blink of an eye ago that you were complaining that the massed ranks of Tosserdom were not responding rapidly enough to your urgent and important request form for information and you therefore assumed that Geoff must be " on the fiddle"

You're now complainig that there is too much information and this is holding you in making your important investment decision!

Perhaps I could suggest an alternative approach which might alleviate the obvious turmoil and angst you are currently experiencing?

Phone Geoff, book an appointment, go there and get your bike done. The chances of you regretting this decision are quite slim, and even if you do Geoff offers a full money back guarantee.

Go on, you know you want to really :thumb2 :beerjug:

That would be nice, especially if the AFR Vs TPS vs RPM is incorporated in the graphs.
There seem to be a multitude of Dyno graphs showing just torque and Bhp on the net which on their own are meaningless.
Not looking 32 channels logged, but the basics would be nice.
 
Here you go, a before run and two after runs on the same chart.

No point putting the Graph up for me I ain't got a clue what I'm looking at.

Fuck me, thats rich.
Admittedly a wot run doesn't tell the whole story.

What are they like on fuel afterwards? Do you have a black sooty tailpipe?

Very funny. Lol made me smile anyway !!
 
I had my Africa Twin Hilltop'd and the difference is terrific. Much more punchy low/midrange and at 4500rpm she really takes off. Fuel consumption hasn't seemed to suffer at all. Win Win. :D
 
So clearly there is no one willing to confirm gains through empirical evidence. Adjust the potentiometer, let riders think they are getting more from the motor... Self-justify the £300? Hmmm.

Is this empirical enough?

I've just ridden a regular 95 mile route there and then back again on motorways using a cruise control set at my normal speeds (I.e. exactly the same way I do every time I make this journey). There is a 50mph average speed area and virtually all non-motorway sections are dual carriageways. I took the usual amount of time (within 2 minutes of my average of 1:45 each way) but I used a significant amount less fuel. As I covered the same miles, in the same time with less fuel, my conclusion is that my engine is more efficient. Am I wrong?

I have ALL my fuel consumption figures for this bike since March 2014. It was easy to check my consumption for this journey every time over the previous 32 months and this was easily the most fuel efficient journey to date.
