Default SE204 Cams in 09 Night Train

Got the cams in the bike and they ran it on the dyno today. I just set the Thunder Max to accept changes and they ran the bike for about 15 miles on the dyno to let the TMax start to adjust to the new cams.

First impression is that it deepened the tone on the Thunder Header. It has more of a bark to it now, and it seems to rev up a little quicker.

Anyway here's the sheet. AFR looks good and it definitely moved the torque curve up. I gained 12.67 HP and 11.22 ft lbs of torque. Have to wait for better weather to see how it rides. I will keep monitoring the TMax and it may gain a little more as it adjusts but I will have to see.

If I didn't have the 103" in my bike, our #'s would be just about the same. You might wanna throw a heavier clutch spring in, the S.E. spring will do just fine. I can definately tell ya, you will have a very enjoyable riding season with your new found ponies. Be safe, Craig
