I'd be glad to take that beast for a ride if you need a second opinion.
Seriously what does 141 ft pounds of tq feel like at 3500 RPM's?
Did you post your dyno sheet in the dyno room? If not you should.
Anytime Brother! To be honest, the first ride was intense because It was so freakin' different before dyno. I'm heavy on the throttle and it felt like the front wheel just wanted to come off the ground. Also, the weather was not ideal that day. It took a day of riding it in better weather to finesse the added power. Prior to this motor, I could stretch this bike out to about 110 with the throttle on full tilt. I have yet to have the throttle on full since the transplant. The bike gets up to those speeds so much quicker with a fraction of the throttle to do it and wants more. There won't be any delay in getting around tractor trailers on the Hwy any longer! I'm a big guy and I feel like my weight plus some has been deleted from the bike now.
I will post the dyno in the Dyno froum.

Thank you! I mentioned it separately, but I believe the engine came fitted with it.

Just released a local 124" with an S&S.585, with our Stage IV Heads/58mm t/body, with a 2/1/2 exhaust system the client came in with.
Almost identical numbers.

It's so much more than I expected. Scott, I've talked to you on the phone a while back when I was looking at building up my 103. Thank you, Sir for the time you spent simply explaining things to me. Folks like yourself are a treasure in this community!
Yep.
That "family" of S&S cams carries increased exhaust timing.
Even a .640 at 11.5 cr won't run excessively warm.

my numbers are almost exactly the same - 10.5 comp - 585 cams -- the benefit is that the motor runs so much cooler than any other motor I have had
It really does run cool. I' very impressed so far.

Super nice table top graph.
Your CVO LEDs taillight looks much better then the Rushmore CVO LEDs. Then I again I maybe bias since they first appeared on my CVO Model year.
Pretty Work Sir!

Thank you! She moves out! I was riding with one of my Brothers on a Low Rider S earlier today. All he said when we got off was Damn! while looking at my bike. LOL! I'm really glad Top shop was using the pre Rushmore version when i ordered my fender. Thank you!
My Indy was impressed with the graph himself! LOL!
Max, Can you explain. I'm not a mechanic and definitely here to learn. Are you talking about the difference between rear wheel and crank? or are Dyno numbers simply exaggerated?

I think what Max was pointing out is that at 3500 rpms (141 TQ) the HP is 94
He was answering the other question about what 141 ft/lb feels like, answer is....about 94 HP
