Gas mileage was 28.5 low, 45 high, 36 average and estimated range at 162 miles on the 4.5 gallon tank. 60 mph indicated was at 3750 rpmsRight; some dynos consistently give lower numbers, some higher.
Their real use is to track changes after doing some kind of engine work.
There was a shop that Sport Rider always used that seemed to have really consistent numbers. A lot of the real "accuracy" comes from the dyno operator's ability to properly correct for temperature, pressure, and relative humidity. Not all dynos, nor operators, are created equal.
Most likely you would end up with a 79.5 HP CB1100 from that dyno; errors are usually always in the same direction.
