Dropped the bike off last night and got a pull done on the dyno before the work starts..blistering 72hp and 98 torque. Lets see where we end up..

Got mine back today. Anxious to see how yours came back. The bike feels good. Power everywhere. Looks a lot better than the previous dyno I post earlier.

Who are you guys using to get the cams installed? Dealerships or do you have reputable performance shops in your areas?

I have a Indy doing mine. Been doing performance builds in the area for years. Also he has worked on a couple other of my bikes.

Nice! I wish I had a good Indy option in my area.

Got my dyno sheet and a short video but unsure how to post a video? Anyone know where I can go to host a video? Here is my dyno chart..and man what a difference! Pulls hard as hell..and the sound, so much better.


Also went ahead and installed my wrap around fender..had to show it off

Wonder why your base HP is so low? Most everyone is pulling about 80hp on the stock base run. In no way am I knocking your bike, just curious what the difference would be.

Could be just the Dyno. Some are stingy and some are generous. It is best to look at the percent increase. Great increase Ash!

I believe so..pulls really hard. Power seems to stretch out more. Taking it out today for about a 300 mile trip so hopefully know a little more this evening. Still trying to upload a video. I love the way the new pipe make it sound.
