Monster numbers and looks great too!
Can someone explain to me the y-axis on the posted graph? I believe I'm seeing values of 0, 50 & 100. How does this correlate to the posted numbers?

Hard to see as a bit blured when zoomed in.
Was 1st thinking possibly 0, 50 and 100% of what was on the right.
But now thinking that is 0, 90 and 180...

How’s that S&S crank Compared to your 131 build with A stock crank .Does the S&S crank have weight shaved off was just wondering if you feel any vibration when rolling .Great build you did there.

Well I will never know. Lol I bought the bike and never rode before it went to the Shop. Long story short I have a blow and go in my truck. Havent had DL since 2001 I rode illegally for so long sold my last bike in 2017.
I decided it was time to jump through all the hopes to get them back. In the ******* of America Illinois you have to have a BAID device for 5 years before you can get reinstated.
so I told myself no Harleys till I get it back. Well I get my DL back 3-27-24. I came across this bike for sale in September and couldnt pass it up.
So I bought it pushed it in the garage until it went to Jake trailered it to Jake and now we are here. So not sure what it felt like before the work. I did the crank cause from factory it was .0065 - .007 out and I wasnt gonna build a monster on that.
So the day I get my DL back I will be going for a ride.
it was the hardest thing Ive done not riding it but this close not gonna screw it up now.
hopefully that all makes sense sorry I couldnt be more help

That is the graph for the power and tq curve. The computer takes a start point 0 and end point 180 and divides it in even intervals for the graph. Does the same for the rpm on bottom
Yep they need one for the bike I never understood why they don’t make a B machine for a bike.For the $150 a month here in Michigan for the machine they are loosing money and good luck on your dl ,my son finally got his after 7 years of jumping through hoops .POLAND FWMC

Update on the build. Still looking at another 10-12 weeks before I get the bike back. Some parts are sitting at 6-8 weeks before they will be here. A few names that will be going on the bike GP Rebuffini DLC carbon visonary euphoria dirtybird sick bagger Dakota digital Arlan ness Lyndall limitless saddle man
Looks like the build will end up being 7-8 months total time. And a pile of cash yikes
