105.82 rwhp with just a slip on. had it dynoed last weekend and the guy told me that the numbers were off about 6 hp due to my bike running way rich. hope that helps answer your question

As per the factory service manual ratings:

Max horsepower:95.5 kW (130 PS) @ 14000 r/min (rpm) at the crankshaft
Max Torque: 70.5 N.m (6.4 kgf.m, 46 ft-lb) @ 11500 r/min (rpm)

Note: the horspower rating is at the crankshaft. Most Dyno runs are rear wheel Horsepower and varies from Dyno to Dyno & bike to bike. Also ther is SAE & STD HP rating where STD ratings are a little higher that SAE. My 03 rated at 107.6 STD and 105.2 SAE with a Slip-on and Generic Arrow Slip-on Map & stock filter.

No two bikes even with identical set ups will show the same nimbers. Our engines even made the same will have as much as 7hp swing....

JUST READ IN A BITISH MAGAZINE THAT THEY MEASSURED IT 112.5HP AT THE WHEEL. BASED ON THEIR COMPARISSON THE ZX-6R IS STILL THE FASTEST (0-60 AND TOP SPEED) AND MOST POWERFULL ... YET THE NEW R6 WAS CHOOSEN AS THE BEST ONE DUE TO ITS SUSPENSSION AND ITS HIGH RPM PERFORMANCE.

That High RPM is false. There are a lot of magazine articles about how Yamaha lied about the 17,500 rpm redline just to sell their bikes.

No 2 dyno machines will read the same numbers either, even wheather, humidity, and tempt plays a factor.

dont the new yamahas redline atr 16500 rpms? im pretty sure might be a little off but thats still pretty high. the 6rrs dont even redline at the 16500 like they said it does it does like 15somethin. al companies do it but a thousand was a lot. the new r6 looks a little weird in person. and the gear shifter is weird it doesnt connect to the peg it comes from behind the front fairing. and the tach isnt as cool as the 05 r6. but you can tell its hella narrower. lol sorry i went to the local kawi yamaha dealer yesterday. they had the new 10rs too and they look awesome in person they had a black and yellow.
