The graph looks pretty good to me, Banshee's just seem to have that dip right before they come on the pipe. Numbers on a dyno are useless, it's the shape that really matters. Put it on a dyno that reads 10hp higher, would it make you happier even though you know it made 10 less on another dyno? Probably not, a 63hp quad is a good running quad to me. Now a 73hp quad that isn't any faster than the 63hp quad is still a good running quad, just not a better running quad.

I also would like to know how sprocket and tire size would affect the numbers.  Would a smaller front sprocket and smaller tires read a lot higher numbers on the dyno which would make one motor look a lot more powerfull than an identical motor with taller gearing?

thats a good question for the gut who dynoed your motor

Nice HP numbers! Dyno looks like a typical banshee graph with a dip at 6K, at least for top end port/pipes. Its also common to have some smaller dips or say two peaks at 8K or above like yours.

 

A bike will typically make the best HP numbers in one particular gear, mine was by far the best in 4th gear (stock gearing). The curve will look similar in the other gears, a little broader in lower gears and more peaky in higher gears, it just wont hit as high of numbers in other gears. If you go with a lower or higher geared front sprocket you will typically just shift the highest HP number to one gear higher or lower, but the max output number wont change much.
