Still beating a "dead horse"

I'm posting this query on both boards.

Has anyone really compared (on a dyno) the Torque/HP between the TBR and Cobra 6x6s?
I can't believe that the TBRs make power compared to the Cobras.

ALWAYS QUESTION AUTHORITY! 

97 Valk bobber, 98 Valk Rat Rod, 2K SuperValk, plus several other classic bikes

I don't either.  They are practically identical.  Same design, diameters the same (looks the same anyway), lengths very close to the same if not exactly, both with baffles & without scavenging... If there's any meaningful difference on a dyno I don't know why.  I'm thinking any differences would be in the testing methods and/or results interp.

I rode a friends valk with TBR and mine with Cobra seemed stronger.  Now I know there are other factors, like mine is a '97 and a red and white.  Hard to beat them

i didn't think the tbr's had baffles in them?

I thought the Two Bros that produce more hp referred to the somewhat strange looking (to me) aluminum pipes that you don't see very often. I would guess that they'd be lighter, too.
When in doubt, ride.
