Wow,
What a huge improvement. No wonder you've been married 25 years. Does she have a sister? Have you noticed performance improvement?

Thanks guys! Yes, she has two sisters....LOL

Performance is about the same, she runs like a scalded dog in MHO. If I crack the throttle I'd had best be hanging on some, throttle response is NOW.
The dyno came out to 79+ on HP and 79+ on torque.
The printout is downstairs and I don't wanna go back down to get it.. LOL

Bottom line is..."I like my Harley Davidson Motorcyle even more now than the day I picked her up"!

Ride Safe..
