If they weren't located so far away,I might consider them but another top rated shop,GMR Performance in Fort Worth,is only 110 miles from me.

Doc doesn't have a trike dyno but will street tune all trikes that comes his way.

As for my earlier statement about 80 MPH and pushing the sheet of plywood. Not any more. I can easily twist the throttle on a good grade 2 up from 80 to 100 and she wants to keep pulling in 6th gear. I'm very happy to say the least.

Keep tune'n those WOT, high kPa areas

I messaged GMR on Facebook messenger on April 9th inquiring about a tune a cam install and I never heard anything back from them. I guess they have more business than they can handle for now.

Give them a call, not everyone will use FB messenger.

Yep,I talked to Steve last week and they have been swamped with work,since before Christmas. As soon as the weather gives me a chance,I'm going to ride our trike down there and drop it off so they can work it in.
