I don't have a negative comment I was just relating to you what a lot of people say. I also said that I hope you get a good tune. Don't get your panties in an uproar. You'll get the scoop first hand.

I'm not sure his negative comment was about their work as much as how much money this is going to cost to scratch that itch.

Enjoy your NEW bike.

Beat me by 2 seconds.

Just curious.Did they say why to stay away? Service ,prices,poor quality work? I as well have heard nothing but great things about Rosas.I have heard they are one of the best in the business. I don't live on the Island though. So I don't get the local scoop.

I ride with a group of over 20 harley owners atleast 15 of them have had work done by this shop everything from mild to wild without a single problem. Their machine shop is one of the most impressive I have ever seen. All machine work is done on premises. If I was going to build a bike to race this is the guy that would be doing the work. But im too old for that chit lol.

I decided based on the forum responses that a Dyno Tune was called for and I called Andrew at Rosa's Cycle Shop on Long Island who has the rep of being one of the best tuners on the east coast. Dropped my bike off this morning. After a long converstaion and not much prodding on his part I was talked into cams. Told Andrew what would make me happy and he said the only cams he would recommend are the Woods TW555. Soooo what started out as just a simple exhaust system upgrade $$$$$ LOL!

Will report the before and after Dyno results on wednesday!
Ha! "Not much prodding", huh?? Sounds to me like you wanted performance work done from the start. If you have the cash, I'd do more than just cams. Get your money's worth with labor cost.... Just sayin'... Good luck and keep us posted.
