Operating on a dynamometer
Operating you motorcycle on a dynamometer causes a large
amount of heat to be generated without sufficient airflow to
remove it.
EBR recommends the removal of the belly pan before running
the bike on a dynamometer.
Traction control should be OFF for dynamometer use or
excess exhaust heat may be generated due to power limiting
strategies.
