PWMORRIS,
It is Ron over at RC Cycles.
The bike does come with the upgraded Harley A & S clutch.
This is a perfect example of why dyno tuning correctly is important for each application. While I am sure if the motor was tuned for max output, it could approach 140 lbs of tq. Now it is exceeding the rest of my parts on my bike. Though timing, you can limit the max tq the engine is producing. Keeping the tq in check at 130 or less, the bike, not my ego, remains happy. It takes a little less than 120 lbs of tq at 6000 to make 135 hp, which is where the head work comes into play.
I dont drag race, nor do I dump the clutch or wheelie. 120 - 130 is more than enough tq to get my scoot rolling. That is more than what a lot of guys have. My bike will easily be able to exceed the mph limits, heh heh.
Ill be posting my dyno results when they become available.
