The tuner is probably flogging the throttle and it's sending the timing all over the place causing the dip in the lines.


Other than a few little ripples, it looks like it should run just fine. How does it feel in seat of the pants?

Did you review the first dyno sheet posted? It shows the current state. As for how it feels, it's terrible through 2500rpm, and then u best hold on.

I'd bet it's in your tune and not your set up......


Do you have the ability to look at the tune he installed?


Did he give you a copy of the map he used?

I don't!! I believe I'll haul the bike to Valley Racing as they come highly recommended to get me on track... I greatly appreciate all the feedback I've received here.

Get that bike over to Valley in Beecher ASAP-
I'm guessing a totally different result.
Flogging, something wrong with the Dyno (what software is that? Anyone know?Din? Superflow?), poor signal from clip, pipes with no back pressure at low rpm causing bog, who the hell knows.
Valley will put in on a modern DJ.....but, just a warning....your actual final numbers will probably change, and it may not be to your liking.....but you will have a way better bike to ride.
Good luck-
