That is very cool, one question though. Was it dynoed with the MR12 in it or was the mr12 used to clean the valves and not in when dynoed?

I think what Brock was telling you was they didn't have time to use his fuel cleaner and drive 10 miles , so he used MR12 to do the cleaning .. He did all this testing and changes in one hour time frame ..
I'm sure Brock will be along at some point and answer any questions ..

Good article.

I've said it before many times........as motorcycle enthusiast I honestly believe we are fortunate to have Brock doing what he does.

How many other folks are out there day in, day out helping us go faster? I know he's a business man but so are a lot of other guys that NEVER spend the time, effort and money he does supporting our hobby.

Sorry but all that showed was what removing a nrp, and adding mr12 and zero weight oil does for hp. I learned nothing from it.

I don't think the experts will learn anything from the video, Brock was probably just showing a regular guy how to gain hp by removing the nrp, 0 weight oil, oem air filter, btw the mr12 helps a little too lol,

Don't forget that instead of sugar coating the DB kiiler's impact on power, (which he sells for a tidy profit), he instead deliberately showed everyone that it will reduce noise BUT it will kill HP. I think thats pretty stand up. Power makes noise and there ain't much getting around it. That said I own a S1000 and not sure if I'm going to pipe it or not. It is so fast and smooth stock. I will admit thought that CT looks and sounds as amazing on that bike as it does on my 14R and if I DO put a pipe on it, Brocks CT is right there along with Akro and Austin Racing.

Frankly I thought it was a very interesting video. I don't use aftermarket air filters for the very reason Brock demonstrated, good to get that confirmation. I've never heard of Aisyn 'less than zero weight oil' or their chain lube - I'd now buy it......Well done Brock and thanks for sharing the info.

Gentlemen,

I had NO IDEA what was wrong with Will's bike. The truth is that I had never tested the NRP in the high powered S1000RR - all of our testing previously had been performed on lower power bikes. Btw- I still haven't tested it on the RR for power, it's for noise reduction we have our QuietKore muffler if you want to make maximum power with minimum noise. I KNEW that his Dunlop was a power killer (so is the Power One 2CT, especially compared to a Battleax). I know oil can be worth as much as 6 hp, so is fuel, and I told him his chain looked like it had been soaked in a creek. I know what I would do with most aftermarket street air cleaners (throw them out of my car window and hit a sign with them) - the race versions work much better, that's why we ONLY sell the race versions (go check my site).

I simply did what I KNOW WORKS - every time, and documented it for all to see… The fact that I sell the stuff just works out better for people who want to go faster. Maybe I should do like the big companies, keep the good stuff to myself and sell the consumers generic SH*T?! It sure as hell has made them PILES of cash over the years…

I had zero intentions of making any type of commercial out of this experience and had no idea Will was going to roll his bike up onto the WyoTech dyno in front of all of those people and make me and my company look bad. But, I certainly wasn't going to stand for it either, and the people watching for that hour got to experience a real treat. Simply a crew of confused guys hell bent on making the dyno read what we knew it should.

I can tell you this, the next time you hear someone bitch about our economy and how 'difficult' it is - point them to this video. From start to finish it’s the Entrepreneurial spirit in action. Hard work and a never quit attitude, if you can capitalize on your success – sweet, that’s what makes our country great.

For those of you who appreciate the work as presented on our page posted by Smoking (just watching the video only tells part of the story) Thank you… for the others, sorry about the spelling on the tank. This is a very narrow place sometimes – smh…

I agree. Brock is a great asset as a motorcycle racing parts supplier and also as an active forum participant..

Forum participant when he wants to be, never commented on the post where someone was claiming a 30 hp loss from the nrp and he should have been able to tell us just what it did lose

Wow ... Brock goes out of his way to bring us info ( for free by the way ) and for that he gets bashed ? You see Carpender, Cecil , Muzzy , Schnitz , Ivan here helping us ? He's a Busy man but still finds the time to pop in from time to time to give us the 411 .. The way some people treat him i'm suprised he posts here at all ..
