Seems there's a few that are obsessed by this which is something I know feck all about. Having just had my scoot dyno'd surely the read outs (max speed etc) you get in a windless, smooth environment have no bearing on road conditions..... 

Worry about your torque

Tuners aside, apart from the hormonely deficient most people dyno their bikes to achieve a 'safe' set up so that their pride and joy doesn't sieze or hole a piston 10 miles down the road.
Torques and horse power are bonuses if you can achieve them with the first item.
Did you have to do that?

I think most scooterist should worry about MPG
Most plead poverty
Most still use the standard tank with high BHP engines
