2007 RKC with converted true dual from stock, custom mufflers from a vendor suggested from the forum and hi-flow aircleaner from Zipper. this is with stock O2 and computer. Here's the result.
There is a hidden contributor these result. It is in the process of being patent.

You should ask dude to throw his bike up on a local Dyno, on your dime, for one run and have him post the numbers. That would be the tell tale story on exactly what this Hemi Glide has in its frame! I'm just say'n...

I got those custom mufflers from these guys suggested by someone from here. the true dual I simply removed the crossover pipe and got a "J" mandrel bend pipe and created the bend and remounted the O2 sensor.
Those dyno run were performed by a local harley dealer. One thing I forgot to included, was the bike had been running on 87 octane for 300 hundred miles and during the dyno run. Yes it is a natural aspirated engine. The result were much higher with the Thunder Max with Autotune installed because of the Wide Band O2 sensor that came with the system. I removed it so I can focused on running with the stock computer since not everyone will spend 800+ on a computer. since it is Fall and the air is much colder I don't have hard data as to how cool the bike runs. Before it got cold it ran 16 degrees cooler, this is veirfied with the Thunder Heart digital multi function gauge I installed. It works great with the Thunder Max w/Auto tune.
One more thing, I still get the mid 40's mileage to high 40's. The system is dual function to run high HP and TQ in the city or for mileage on long runs. One thing I was impressed about the run was: The tech was cruising at 40mph on the dyno, don't know what gear he was on. but when he crank the throttle for accel test. from 40mph to 130pmh was 4.3 seconds.
My goal is to reach mid 50's and still maintain those hp and tq, thus far I am 3/4 there because of the mid to high 40's mileage. The other result that is hard to believed by my co-riders is how fast the bike red line which is fast throttle reponse.

I'd be happy to put the bike on the dyno over at Bayside Harley Davidson in Portsmouth VA on your dime (or anyone's dime for that matter, I'm not going to turn down a free dyno run), as suggested by Timbone, and post the map on here. Ain't no thang...

Send me his shop address and I'll look at my schedule and see if I can make it down there. I normally travel down that way for work maybe I can strap the bike on a trailer and run it on his dyno. PM me more than happy.
I am getting old I forgot to clearly specify that this is a completely stock engine (96). No internal parts added, no big piston, no cam and any other kit to install for a bigger engine with 19K miles.

Is the "hidden contributor" a new camshaft design? That TQ curve doesn't look stock to me, looks like aftermarket cams??

Dear FastBagger, I first thought TimBone and Plow64 said it all, but now is time to add my 2 cents. Plow64 failed to mention that this is his everyday ride and these numbers where made on pump gas. I can't say enough about the guys at Joe's Cycle Repair joescyclerepair.com/hemi1172.jpg and Hemi Performance Engineering hemiengineering.com/pages/shootout2009.html. If you ever find yourself in Forest, Va. stop in take a ride and see what 1.28 Horsepower per cubic inch feels like. 
Thanks, George

That 1st little spike looks like the other dyno sheets I've seen when nitrous was used.
