First topic message reminder :

well, after reading and re-reading all the fun people have, i decided to get the bike serviced, remove secondaries, replace front fork springs and get a pc5 installed/air filter etc.
I think the springs I got are on the stiff side (my request) .95's instead of the .91's.
Also had the cartridges tweaked to allow better flow, so the bike is fairly stiff on the road but gives a bit, the stock springs had to be wound up and that made them wooden throughout the whole ride. they held well but I thought i would give them a tweak before adding more hp.
Horsepower....
Decided to take the bike to a certified dyno and pc5 shop at slacks creek (brisbane)
turned up to pick it up, stuck my head in the dyno room just in time to see the oil start pouring on the floor after second run. apparently a seal in the water pump area may have let go, so less than happy right now as I have no bike for the long weekend.
shop says it was due to servicing company putting too much oil in when the serviced it. cant find any other horror stories on the internet Sad
positives : first run with new air filter (DNA I think), and no secondaries had 113hp (up 7hp) before any tuning and running lean as hell. 14.3 AFR. The guy was doing the fuel mapping when things got wet, he reckons that after repairs, the bike should get between 120 and 130hp.
that's about it from me.

I thought $600 sounded a bit steep considering I have the PC3 installed and running pretty good. Might just get the TBs adjusted and a new set of plugs. See how that goes.
