Kinda hard to place credibility in the dyno chart when like Warchild said you don't know the source. Numbers on the chart don't look quite right, and here is MHO on it.

Torque X Engine Speed divided by 5252 equals HP. Kawasaki gives a figure of 113.5 lb/ft of torque at 7500 RPM for the ZX14. Using the formula, that works out to 162 horsepower. Looking at what supposedly is a dyno chart from the GTR1400, it shows 113.47 lb/ft of torque at what appears to be 6750 RPM and horsepower is 159.41. Plugging the numbers into the formula gives a HP of 145.8 HP.

So, until the source of the chart is revealed, hard to say whether it is true or not. I guess we will have to wait and see!
