I'm sorry but I fail to see what you mean about engine braking, an engine itself is a pump which delivers it's energy through the means of a transmission, this (amongst other things) creates friction and thus engine braking; a two-stroke engine works on a cycle; it needs to admit fuel in and then fire it to create it's power, effectively "2 strokes" for one bang; the rest such as the transfer phase and exhaust cycle happen within this one cycle.
-Yes there is noticeably less engine braking than a comparable four-stroke engine but by it's very nature as being , basically a pump you are generating positive and negative force which can roughly translate as engine braking. Secondly, I'm not an expert in dyno's but I know that they have a clutch so it may be that something was up wth the dyno, who knows but the operator. My remark was reference to the bike "slipping" when under power, it's either electrical or mechanical because-
-the engine does reach it's peak but it does not do so in correlation; it jerks and bolts. I know it's a long winded reply but I just can't see how you link the two together. Regards..
@RGVCripted a dynojet dyno (not sure if that is one) measures power at the wheel. how the engine brakes is one of the factors for how it calculates power. I can't explain it really but i've seen them on a dyno and they behave the same way. It sounds like the clutch is slipping but its just reaching powerband and rolling the dyno roller.
Whats wrong with it? The KR1-S had 55hp from standard.

Do you understand how a dyno-dynamics Dyno works? Different to the Dynojet ones
All readings on these are lower final numbers than a dynojet dyno...
Google search this phrase: dyno dynamics vs dynojet

Sounds like the clutch is slipping, possibly something wrong with the ignition as it revs out real slow...

@RGVCripted 1 its a 2 stroke so it has no engine braking 2 its on a dyno
