Default Got sideways on acceleration

Liking the 107 but scared myself last evening. Passing a slow horse trailer I gunned it in second (think it started spinning here) then popped into third really felt the back end break loose and spinning at this time. Felt good, almost like a 600lb dirt bike, will get the AIM for it and practice a bit.

Well, looks like it won't be long before new tires. Have you had it dyno yet?

Yeah, but just locally, not happy with the tune, will get it redone when I put a Fatcat on by a competent tuner. Have to save my lunch money OL complaining about my HD spending hehehe.

Just flashed my ecm with my Dynojet PowerVision with a FuelMoto tune.. Otherwise stock 96"... I still haven't gotten used to the fact that if i gun it it'll go sideways in 1st through 3rd gears... hahahahaa!!! Last time was in front of a cop who (luckily) was pre-occupied with writing somebody a ticket. Almost had to clean my saddle after that one...hahaha!!

Well my Stage 1 96 incher pulled the front end up doing something similar. The Dyna has plenty of power usually. Have not lost the rear traction in a turn, tho. I am real careful since I crashed my Honda VFR doing that in December.
