I do not have before results because I bought the bike stock, bought all the stuff from FuelMoto and got it installed but never had it dyno tuned.
Had it tuned today and this is probably the best $300 I spent. It ran ok before but it runs great now. FuelMoto does a good job with their maps but like others have said, they are generic and nothing can replacement a good dyno tune. Proof is below... before and after dyno tune with the same stuff installed.
Here are my sheets:
He gave the second sheet to show me Air Fuel issues. He said I would have been lucky if I was getting 30 MPG because of how lean and rich it was running, depending on the RPM. It made perfect sense after he explained it to me.
It is great to gain basically 6 HP. He said I probably gained 10 Torque but he didn't do a sheet that had the before on the torque. Regardless, I can tell it when I twist the throttle, it is SO MUCH more smooth.
He wasn't happy with the dip in the curve at about 3200 RPM and he doesn't know what is causing that. He said it's still not bad at all (still much better than stock) but he would rather have a nice curve without the small dip. He thought it may be the Wood 555 cams but after looking at their site and seeing more info on them, he said that couldn't be it...he said those are nice cams.

07 deuce, rinehart duals debaffled, torque cones, open ac with se filter. Local bike builder was doing dyno runs for $30 at the show this weekend, figured why not?? 74.6 hp, 86.3 ft lb torque. Next step is figuring out if I do cams/power vision/tune, or 103" kit/power vision/tune. Gotta sit down and talk numbers with the owner shortly. I'd like to end up at 100/100.

Holy sh** I want that hellova curve that's what I want me chat to look like
Had mine dyno'd last week while it was in the shop for that transmission fiasco. Figured a basic stage1 makes a good baseline dyno before tossing in an ignition, cams, headwork, etc. Nothing spectacular, but more info for future readers!
