I just got my big shots staggered last week and I took the bike to the dealer to get dynoed Wednesday. It has a 1550 stage 2 kit with se a/c. On Thursday the dealer calls me me and says yhat the 203 cams that THEY put in were manufactured wrong and that the bike, when dynoed, only showed 86 and 87 hp and torque. They also counldn't get the bike to run anything but very lean, so they are getting new 203's on monday and re-dynoing it. The dealer is taking great care of me and iall is being done under warranty.
I would greatly appreciate any input on this. Should I be concerned? Does this happen often? Is there anything else that could be causing this problem in engine timing?
The bike was very sluggish up to 3k then ran pretty strong. However now I realize that I have no baseline on how the bike ran before the dynoing. Any suggestions?
