I like Danny up there in Union City, the GM, Lee, in Collierville, the parts guys in Memphis, and service people in Southaven. These guys don’t treat me like a walking wallet even though their job is to sell.

Checked the tread depth on my tires, to decide if I should replace them before a big upcoming trip.

Ok, finally got the tune done by HD. I also have the V&H FP3. I worked with V&H to merge their fuel/air mixture map with the HD dyno tune. The V&H tune is NOT EPA compliant unlike the HD tuner.

I took it out for a spin and was shocked to see I was getting as much as 151 lbs of torque and HP on the V&H phone app. I just wish there was a way to record the numbers on the V&H app.

Use a screen recording app, or Google Play Games (I think) will record the screen on am Android.

Random torque numbers won't be of much use, but you can do a simulated Dyno run by doing a single-gear roll-on, probably in 2nd or maybe 3rd, that you can then chart in Excel

I just found a way to record the screen on the iphone so I can ride without the distractions of looking at the phone. I will have to go our for another run this weekend and capture the peaks. I will post later this weekend.

I can do this on the FP3? Would I put the FP3 in tune mode to do this?
