How longs he keeping it for? You picking it up this weekend?
I wish.... getting a different exhaust and have to mill the heads for my other cam.... When I gave him the ccp numbers to mill the pistons for the correct ccp, the readings were wrong because of a collapsed lifter. (not pumped up) and because of that the ivc was actually advanced by 13* (the difference off .060" lift at the lifter...) which exaggerated my ccp. But Scott assured me i would have it back by the end of the month for the "NE Evo Meet up"
Picked up my bike Thursday and am very happy with the results. I was expecting a little more but then again I always am.... Just did a round-trip to Rhinebeck 250 miles and the bike pulls the hills on RT 28 through the Catskills no problem in 6th gear. I changed my gear ratio to a 3.20:1 and still have to refill the tank to get a good idea on mpg. I think I'm right around 40 mpg. Bike is very responsive and quick. Here's the Dyno sheet.... Still have a little problem above 5k. Scott and I believe it to be a problem with the carb... Everything else has been ruled out.. So I might be going to a G carb.. Possibly will be doing some more tuning on the Dyno. Scott has a G setup he wants to try before I spend... So more to come.. I still believe there is more in this build but won't know till testing.... Till then I pleased and am enjoying the ride... I have not got on it to hard from the hole yet so I can't say how it pulls for 1st, 2nd and third at wide open throttle...
