Getting Bike Tuned
Taking bike to Victory Drive V-Twins in Indianapolis tomorrow to get tuned. Heard a lot of good things about them. Was never really happy with the tune I had done last fall. Guy said he set it a little rich, but I feel I am just a little too rich. Friend noticed yesterday I puffed a little smoke when I was getting on it, and it seems to run a little rough at low rpm's. Don't think it is too far off but figured I might as well have someone who specializes in v-twins check it out (last guy does all bikes, but he seems to specialize in rice burners).
Anyone in the area ever deal with Victory?

The fine folks at Victory Dr V-Twins has been taking care of my bike since I got it in Dec '08. Very professional and they ALWAYS treat me right. Have a PC-V, mapped by Jamie/Keith, decided to have Rodney @ Victory dyno it. Bike runs sooo much better after the dyno (no disrespect to FuelMoto).
One time I ordered a Kury part off the catalog, got the wrong part (totally my fault as I gave them the wrong part #). Melissa refuse to let me pay for it. I still see that part sitting on their shelf, I kinda feel bad about it....
Anyway, I'm sure you and others will be happy dealing with them. Highly recommended.

Rodney did my bike today. I really like them, good people! Melissa was great to talk to!
I was told by the last guy he set the bike up a little rich, so I was thinking it may be too rich. I was way off, the bike was lean and was starving for gas at low rpm's. I was freaking livid. The last dude just loaded a stock map and did very little adjusting. Took it to him because previous owner put the stage 1 a/c on with the Python pipes and never had it tuned, figured it was lean then. He told me he mapped both cylinders and everything. I'm not a huge engine buff (can do the simple mechanics) so I didn't know any different. He didn't even have the rev limiter turned on. Rodney went through it thoroughly and let me watch it all, explaining everything as he went. He knows his chit! Bike runs so much better. They have a new customer now!
Thanks!
