Welcome to the technical report archive from Bike Boy, your trusted source for in-depth motorcycle knowledge. These reports are compiled from hands-on experience working on a wide array of customer and personal bikes at Brad The Bike Boy, and previously at Moto One. Bike Boy’s expertise spans across various makes and models, providing valuable insights for motorcycle enthusiasts and professionals alike.
Bike Boy’s personal stable of bikes, which constantly informs his professional work, includes a Ducati ’89 851, a ’97 600m with a 750 engine, and a ’93 400SS. Past projects and experiences also include work on Moto Guzzi Sport 1100i, BMW R1100S and R1150R, and Ducati 888, 900M, and ST2 models. While some bikes like the Guzzi Eldorado (GT850) and the high-performance KR1S 250 (which impressively produced 50Hp) haven’t been dyno tested for formal reports, the breadth of experience is undeniable.
To easily navigate through the wealth of information, reports are categorized by motorcycle model. Below, you’ll find an index starting with general engine management information, followed by specific sections for Aprilia, Ducati, Bimota, BMW, Moto Guzzi, and MV Agusta.

Recognizing the need for timely information sharing, Bike Boy also incorporates “collected blog post” reports at the beginning of each section or subsection. This innovative approach ensures that valuable insights shared on the blog, such as those concerning FCR carburetors fitted to 2V Ducatis, are readily accessible and organized, preventing users from having to sift through countless blog entries. Bike Boy understands the frustration of aimless searching and prioritizes efficient information retrieval.
Further down in the index, you will find detailed, albeit older, reports explaining Bike Boy’s dyno testing and tuning methodologies. These reports clarify how dyno results translate to real-world riding experiences for bike owners. All dyno testing is conducted at Dynobike in Moorabbin, and it’s important to note that the SAE correction factor is consistently applied for all published dyno runs, ensuring accuracy and comparability across reports.
