Man how I wish for do-overs...

I took it out for the first real ride yesterday, 110 miles. Muffler really sounds good. It is not loud or obnoxious. 3500 to 4500 RPM sound nice, its a deep pleasing tone. As one would expect the volume goes up as the RPM go up. Music to my ears running from 4000 rpm to red line. Sounds mean close to red line. That said do not expect it to sound like your M8 or TC Harley. It sounds great in a different way, think Ducati or other high RPM V-Twin.

Of importance to many, at 70-80 mph cruising, the volume is not overly loud at all. There is no drone or buzz. Its pleasant sound that you could listen to for 700 or more miles in a day. You can easily listen to your music in your head set. Get on it hard and then you can hear it.

The sound is good, better than the SE muffler. Better than two bros I think also. I have not heard Toce, but it would not be a good option in my mind, if your going off road.

Great! I was under the impression you were still working on your tunes for the bike is why I was asking.

Would love to do the tune. Just it is a first year motor. Not sure I want to risk warranty. I have done it on other bikes but the issues of the motor were known.

Same here, my warranty is up in spring 2003, I'm not planning to void my warranty on this one like I did my Milwaukee 8 Road Glide. I would void the warranty on a new M8 bike the weekend that I brought it home, I know the bike and know how to work on the motor and have dug deep into the electrical already which means the dealer isn't required. I'll fix or upgrade an M8 on my own lift. The PA isn't quite there with parts and aftermarket support quite yet. Hopefully next spring the recalls and updates will be done, some aftermarket performance and advanced tuning is available. But there are people that are already chopping and setting these things up for the track and other insane **** and it's really cool that some foundational tuning is available by Fuel-Moto and they can ride the bleeding edge.

Another couple of models with the Rev Max and the aftermarket can get really comfortable about spending the capital on R&D / Manufacturing and it'll be on.

Jamie, without doing the tune, is there any gain in HP and torque #'s?

Hey Jamie… any word on whatcha got coming for 2023 and the Revolution Max bikes? My warranty is up in May and I’ve already installed the Fuel Moto exhaust. I’ll be grabbing a tuner from you and adding a free flow filter around that time.
