Just walked in the door from upstate...
So true, It took about 2 .5 hours to get it to that point. I would say there was at least a dozen or better pulls and each time Scott took the time to point out the differences in the pulls... The low end was a combination of jetting and the RB pipe.....
Still a problem in the big end as well and Scott will be working on that also. I left the bike with him because there was just to much to do to unleash the potential of this build..... And not enough time for me. I have to ba back to work in the morning....
A E pipe is a n older design pipe that is very similar to a Supertrapp with real nice curves in the head pipe and an Elliptical muffler that has the same plates as the Supertrapp (a tunable pipe). when we first put it on with out any jet changes the pull picked up 2 lbs of torque and almost 5 hp.. We both were very impressed, well me more than Scott....
So for now it's still up there till Scott's finished.
The biggest thing I learned today is that I still have a lot to learn... A Dyno will tell you what you need to know if you know what the motor is capable of..... And with Scott's experience I think we'll see more....

Actually I'm wrong it's good for most twins if you ride in the upper rpm range.... Works great up top......

A Supertrapp will be almost a carbon-copy power output, and delivery, of the E Series pipe.
Note;
We just hung the adjustable E pipe on the bike.
Tuning of the number of plates could have yielded more yet, but the installation of that was to see if the change would show gains, and/or any trends....it sure did.
