Deposit went down on the Breakout a week after the spill, wasn't going to let it stop me. It seemed like a good deal, hardly broken in and not much more than a new fatbob.
I have a twin bike TTS, first hit went on the Dyna, so when I get a free weekend I will complete a few tuning runs. Major thing is to get it richer for cooler running, especially with the 40c+ heat that's rapidly approaching. I will take the current tyres through this summer and then swap them over for the Night Dragons.
Main thing I commonly hear is the SE255 cams run hot on that motor. The VE's in your tune are already configured rather lean especially in the lug, idle and cruise areas of the VE tables- HD does this on purpose for emissions and limiting power in these areas to reduce chance of "novice rider" engine damage during break-in. Also the AFR table is set for 14.6 in these same areas, which is great for economy and emissions but bad for heat.
If you are tuning with narrow band o2 sensors then you'll only be able to tune for 14.6 and only in the cruise / idle areas of tables. Is your TTS compatible with the CVO 110?
Thanks Dog,
the mirrors are called Rizoma Circuit - nice looking indeed.
I would prefer the TB rear-kit here, too ... probably better to save to extra money of the CVO for some parts.
Yeh I found a pair of these black Rizoma Circuit 851's on ebay lightly used for pretty cheap. Should be here this week. I occasionally browse the thunderbike.de site to see what's new with aftermarket parts. I could go broke ordering from that site- lots of cool stuff.
The mirrors are cool. Usually Rizoma is a bit expensive. Got some stuff of them at my racer.
Yes, some cool ideas. Have you seen their mod with the Nightrod Lamp & Cover on Breakout? I´ve also thought about a 9x21" rear wheel - I think it fits with the oem swingarm, so not "that much" to do here ;-)

I think the TTS is compatible, its the newer version and there are calibration files for CVO softails referenced in the cal file list, so I'm hoping its ok. I will find out in a couple of weeks. I had heard the cams run quite hot and is a concern in the Middle East heat. I wasn't the one to break-in this engine so fingers crossed the previous owner looked after it on the initial 4,000km. The cost of fuel here means I'm looking for cool running, economy really doesn't matter when I can fill the bike for a couple of quid.
Agreed on the Rizoma parts, some really smart parts, had a a tonne of it on my GSR, not cheap though
I saw a post from a BO owner who fabricated brackets for National Cycle's Wave Windshield. I have been looking at the windshield and am wondering what would be needed to make brackets

I'd call national cycle. See if they offer something that fits the bo fork width and diameter. They may have something and just don't list it for our bikes.
