Default Poorboy doing his TTS tune

Well, first of all, the heavy breather on his SG looks awesome and I swear it sounds mean as hell!

Now, regarding the tune, I'm sure Paul will have a great story for us later, since he is still in the middle of tuning/doing his tweaking runs, but as of now, he can scratch off his bucket list doing a wheelie outa second gear! i wish i had my camera when he came back from that run. Let's hear his final report,,,well, that's if we can ever get him off the bike.

Dang gum..... what have I been missing?

Pulling away from a 4-way stop sign I quickly went through first gear and into 2nd. First time EVER on a Harley pulling a wheelie. Two volunteer firemen were standing out if front of the neighborhood station when I went by and one of them actually pointed at me as I continued on.

The poop sensation and my sudden shock of feeling angular tilt had me realize I was pulling air under my front tire.

My bike is running like never before and FEELS unlike anything I ever thought a Harley would do.

Obviously Mr. Wizard did it again. He said I am sucking so much air through that bike, my nozzles are working overtime to keep the cylinders hosed-down with fuel.

I cannot even imagine cams and a new head pipe one day. Oh gosh.

I still have more hi-speed, interstate, sixth-gear pulling to capture because on my fifth run tonight I was pounded with a downpour of rain (and I think hail) along with serious winds that added to the ambiance of trying to hang on.

I had to cut that run short, duck for cover under a gas station overhang and then limp home in lightening and more pouring rain. No rain suit on, no rain cover for my heavy breather. (that was staying dry along with the contents of my left saddlebag on Dave's garage floor).


I BLAME the ENTIRE Georgia Crew for what you have gotten me into. The fastest bike? No way. One of the fastest running STOCK bikes? Probably not. One of the most appreciated bikes that has received love from the Georgia Crew and MAGIC from Mr. Wizard? You bet!!!!!!

Thanks Dave! Thanks GA Crew!!!!

AND A GOOD TIME WAS HAD BY ALL! Sounds like you may need larger injectors now, Pauley! That Heavy Breather, and the cover on it, is HUGE and GORGEOUS! (I got to see it in person today when Paul rode up while I was at Wiz's.)

When that thunderstorm rolled through here earlier, I was sure glad I wasn't on a bike... YIKES! Rain is one thing... but hail and lightning are another kettle of fish altogether...

But POOP SENSATION?!?!?!? Say it ain't so!

Very cool. So you have changed the pipes, intake, added the TTS, and it's made a huge difference huh?

... next time when you look at me and say the bike is running like ****, you will think twice about it.

The boy was riding on a tune calibration and says... It's running like crap so I took a real tweaked calibration and told him to run down the street and fill it up with gas but on the way I told him to get on it... he came back with a glaze in his eyes and forgot the gas.

This is the stuff sweet dreams are made of. Can't wait for round two, round three, etc. I won't be done until Dave says I am. Period.
