US hp (550 lbf.ft/s) Metrisk" hp (735.5 W) that gives a bike dynoed in us a little less Hp than the same bike dynoed in say sweden. 1f u got 150Hp in us it is 152 hp in the metric run. I know,,not much but its something to think about when we talk about dynoruns. if u got to convert anything so heres a usefull link,in swedish but all the terms are the same,,i think http://hemsidor.torget.se/users/b/bohjohan/convert/conv2_s.htm#torque
