Dynamometer output readings for my moped

[sseepppp]

TL;DR Summary

Hello everybody this is my first time posting here hope i am doing it right (sorry if english is bad)

Hello everybody this is my first time posting here hope i am doing it right (sorry if english is bad)

I had a new project for a moped (bike) tuning idee
I want to make a dyno to see how much power my bike gives. My idea was to use a motor from a wasmachine and use it as the dyno power sourche. So i make a wheel were my bike wil run on ( the wheel has a waterbrake to simulate resistance) that than rotates the wasmachine motor so that motor wil give power out (the power is in volts) Now i want to transform that power into diagram map. Where i can see the power curve. For example i drive 20 kmph it gives 10 volts and when i ride 40 it gives 15. The volt that come out that i have to read does not have to match like hp (horsepower)

I want something where i can read off the power that comes off a dynamo

Hopefully you understand me and can help me
Greetings

Welcome to PF.

I want to make a dyno to see how much power my bike gives.

Before you spend a lot of time and money building your own dyno, you might try downloading an app for your cellphone that uses the phone's accelerometer to give you a simple capability to do power measurements as you experiment with different engine settings. Do a Google search similar to mine below to check out your options:
