Default RE: Head Winds

and 4th just sounds so sweet at 70 mph

ORIGINAL: mudpuddle

ORIGINAL: deanz

Yeah I've done the same thing, but without a tach I,m at a loss.



How long can I run in 4th @ 70mph?

Probably run at 70 in 4th just about as long as you want Dean.

Very hard to damage this new gen TwinCam motor.

in third my 06 hits the RevLimiter (6200) at 90 MPH.

In fourth, 100 MPH is 5500 RPM

I wouldn't hesitate to run mine at full twist, in any gear third and up,
til I have to pull over for fuel.

Assuming of course that you are not running the lean factory setting.

sounds like we all agree then, 4th it is!!!! that's why most of us bought Dynas ( unless it was by accident or dumb luck ) so we could ring the necks outta 'em , and keep on keepin' on ( thanks, Joe Dirt...)

Deanz, thanks for the comp on the avatar, that's my boy Hayden, he's almost six months and ready for his first (of many) Harley, his sister is five and already racing motocross and as soon as I can figure out how to get her pic to within the parameters , she will be up there next...
