I haven't had much luck lately w/uploads of stills. When I try to upload I have to do it multiple times before the site will accept it. I usually end-up having to do it only two at a time.
I have an AMD 32-bit chip and a dsl line.

If you count the roll-offs of the throttle, it appears as if the tech shifts it into gear initially, and then shifts it three more times under load to the rear wheel. That's what I count anyways. That would be fourth to my counting. The only exception to that is if he didn't actually shift it into another gear one of those times and I suppose that is possible, I just don't know. I didn't ask, or I don't recall asking what gear they run in, I assumed it would be direct 1:1 drive, which would be fourth gear, right?
You will also see smoke coming from the engine in the vicinity of the engine crankcase breather, apparently. In-light of the engine failure shortly (as-in "one road mile from the dyno" shortly!) maybe the tech saw the tell-tale smoke from the engine, figured, "****, I blew this guy's engine!," and decided to call it a day before the bike lunched itself then & there.
I spoke with the guy who sat in the saddle and ran the dyno for the runs. I asked him about the smoke. His response was that it appeared to him that the 3/4" crankcase breather wasn't fully-seated on the airbox, and that was the source of the fumes.
Now, bear in-mind I have owned this bike since it was 1 yr. old. This is not the original engine, I replaced it with a used engine of unknown mileage this past year, and had only run maybe five tanks of gas thru it before I decided to dyno it. Up to that time, since I had installed the 'good used' engine, it ran perfectly. About the only thing that it did was run a bit rough at idle in (for FL) cold weather, as-in the 40's F. Above or coming-off idle and accelerating through the rev band, it ran perfectly. No hesitation, no spitting-back through the carbs, no backfiring out the exhausts, no excess smoke coming from either the intake or exhaust, nothing. It would pull hard to redline and I infrequently ran my original engine or this to redline repeatedly, as-in flogging the engine. I as a rule, don't do drag-race starts (what's the fun in that w/a VMax?) and never speed-shift. I granny-shift, rolling out of the throttle while I clutch the bike and select the next gear, but on-occasion, I will go full-throttle as the clutch engages. Not excessive slipping of the clutch, just make sure the clutch is fully-released and then a snap of the throttle WFO until the next shift.
Actually, there were three runs as I recall, this is what I recorded. I count three before the end of the video. The last one has the smoke coming up from under the carbs where the first two pulls seem to be more exhaust-origin.
0:17 clutch engaged
0:37 run #1 begins
0:45 left side exhaust smoke
1:25 run #2 begins
1:34 smoke
2:07 run #3 begins
2:15 smoke
2:30 carb area smoke
I am having trouble getting the video to upload so I am going to look at the stickies for help. OK, after searching the site, I haven't found the instructions for loading a video here, so I guess that means using a web-hosting site. I'm trying that now.
