Okeedokee, got the results and I've forgotten how to insert photos 
The peak hit 69.86bhp and the average is 68.45bhp The guy who tested it was impressed with the power delivery and as you can see in the results the line is virtually the same angle all the way through the revs ( it's the dark green line)
And the bike is running a tad rich still ! the exception being between 4,200rpm and 5,400rpm where it's slightly lean. ( thats the wavy light green line and the 'perfect' mixture line is the red split line at 13)
I'm quite chuffed with the results and I even got a luvverly mug o coffee and had a chat with the owner who races 400's !
So, who's the closest ?

GRAHAMI...you are a clever T**T 
I think your right about the 'flat curve' Dandy, I seem to have ironed it out
It's probably caused by the leaner emulsion tubes I fitted in my attempt to improve economy. If you look at the graph you'll see the mixture reading from 4,200 to 5,500rpm is actually lean and hence the lack of a corresponding peak in performance.
I'm up to about 45mpg on the current settings which is acceptable for me. When I get back from France I'll swap the tubes and fit a high flow air filter etc and hopefully it'll restore my 'flat curve'......
On the road it's noticable and the bike just pulls right up to the redline, no peaky induced seat sliding anymore...
Mcbodge, sorry for the foreign language earlier. A dyno run is about strapping yer bike to a dynometeromiter thingy machine and wragging the nuts off it to see how much money you wasted trying ( and usually failing ) to make your bike more powerful or economical, like wot I did
When I pulled up at the garage I thought I'd arrived at the wrong place. No less than 6 F**kin MASSIVE Triumphs etc parked outside. I saw a Valkyrie, 2.3ltr with 150bph at the rear wheel, and 150ft/lbs of torque at 5000rpm, scaffolding fer handlebars. They were all mint and the guys on them all looked at me when I passed them, blipping my throtle and showing off me pro stocks
Then I nearly went deaf....these old boys had all fitted cut-offs....OH MY GOD
I WANT ONE ! I said, after picking me teeth off the floor and sticking em back in my dropped jaw. The garage owner said one had a car tyre fitted ! AWESOME MACHINERY !
Cheers for the fix Thomas

I know what a dyno run is! I was just wondering what the outcome was
It seems that your bike is running reasonably now.
Is there anywhere near Manchester that does dyno runs for a reasonable price?

thought the graph was showing hp & torque curve, but its not, its showing A/F ratio
Thought something was up, as the lines didn't cross at 5252rpm
