Bike will be getting tuned later today or tomorrow. Then off to Dave Dupor for final touches.

Here is a short clip of the initial idle.

If anyone is interested in build sheet and cost here is the invoice.

Bike is Loaded on dyno break in today Jake will do the pulls Tuesday. Will have a video and dyno sheet with results. I asked Jake today what he thought it would do he wouldn't say. Lol..



I told him what ever numbers we get my goal in this build was never to be the fastest guy on the street but I wanted to be the most reliable bike with roll on power when needed. Let's see what 20k in aftermarket can get you.

Very nice!! Obviously a great build with a pro tune. I’m not familiar with that brand of dyno and am curious how the numbers would compare with a Dynojet dyno. Doesn’t really matter as you will be extremely happy with the combo. Just curious.

Thank You! I am also interested in what other dynos would say. But in the end the numbers were just added bonus i wanted to build a bike that was everyday use reliable with roll on power if i want it. I wont be drag racing at the track on the weekends with it.
