    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

it's hard to find consistent numbers for this online and I tried doing a search here but only found the 8 valve numbers. It looks as though it's around 80 but does anyone have the actual numbers at the crank and rear wheel?

You can't trust mfg published info for info like HP. That's why the better motorcycle mags dyno test the vehicles themselves.

Cycle magazine used to dyno all their new bikes. Maybe you can find a copy of an old road test?
 
If you're out to get True numbers......run it on a Dyno.

There's just no way to get an exact figure from a magazine, or manufacturer.
Every bike runs slightly different.

You're literally playing a guessing game, if you do it any other way.

Thanks for the replies and thanks for the links, BassCliff. I enjoyed reading that article.
 
numbers I've seen online range anywhere from 72 to 86. Anyhow, it's not like I'm dying to know, just thought someone might have the 'official' numbers.
 
I have a dyno run sheet for my 83 750ed some where, I'll see if I can dig it up, but I do remember that mine had 74hp at the rear wheel and around 40 ft lbs of torque. Was dyno'ed on a dynojet 200 dyno back in 96".
 
I'm going to get my 82 gs750e dyno'd by a pro in a few weeks, I'll be sure to post the results.

I'm having the work done by Mike Witt. he is a Harley guy but still a great guy, really :)
