2010 Honda VFR1200F on the Dyno

I want one so bad. Unfortunately I sell the motorcycles right now.  And right now we are in a recession.  So, as far as I can tell, it'll be a few year before I go from selling my personal bikes to actually buying one. I want, I want, I need, I need!

Are these dyno numbers "calculated crank numbers"? Or rear wheel numbers? With the guesstimates that the bike could have up to 195 crank horsepower, these numbers come in a bit lower than I expected. Is the shaft drive causing significant driveline losses perhaps?

Questions of curiousity that ultimately don't matter; it is a great looking bike and I hope its a home run for Honda.

As stated in the story text above in the first sentence, the numbers are measured on our Superflow WinDyn dyno, which means they are measured at the rear wheel, not calculated or estimated.
