Give us your thoughts and results when she's all buttoned back up! Been curious to see dyno results as well as to hear some real world experiences with the SuperStreet and a new cam.
Got it tuned! Little less HP and more torque than I expected. Could pick up HP if I removed DB reducer but it would lose lower end torque so that's not gonna happen, more torque is all good with me! Gonna drive a rental car up Friday and then ride the 210 miles back home. Can't wait!!

Looks like it all worked out. Need a ride report, Friday's a long wait.

Takes a strong back to throw a bike in the truck

Looks like it should be even more of a blast to ride now! Tons of torque right off the bat and looks like it pulls through the upper RPMs nicely as well. Like OldMike, I'm interested to know your thoughts after your ride back home. I bet you're pretty anxious to pick her up!

I used two Reese ramps. I think they're 90 inches long with an arch.

Bike rides up one, while I walk up the other. I have someone stand on the opposite side, just in case I need them.

Slow and steady seems to work fine.
