Funny guys, I wasn't trying to sell anything just letting you know what I thought! It could all be in my head. Oil change was done about 500 miles ago and air filter is clean and good shape...... Is there anyone who has it and what did you think?

put one on my mx bike and im sorry to say to all the snake oil folks that it worked. im thingking of getting one for my ultra. gained about 2 hp on a 250 cc and definitly better throttle response. Im amazed that guys will spend 3 grand to get 10 hp but will call something for 100 bucks they have never tried, snake oil. Throttle response on these big twin bikes are horrendous compared to a mx bike. hey. if it dont work im out 100 bucks

Could it possibly be because they are throttle by wire?

Boyesen has been around forever and have always specialized in intake products for motorcycles albeit offroaders, they are anything but Snakeoil Salesmen.
I don't know that I'd buy one but logic/science makes sense to me especially on the lowend
It would be interesting to see one on a dyno back to back with a stocker

Someone did a Dyno comparison a while back on this Doo-dad, can't remember who exactly, and it came back as inconsequential. That's a big word for 'didun-do-nuffin'.
