Just got her back today after 5k maintenance. From seat of the pants, feels good, not overly impressed yet (will take her out longer tomorrow). Seems to gallop a bit right around 1500 RPM. CAT removal made a huge difference in sound/volume (I like it).
Ok here's mine....Ok so got the bike back from the dyno tuner (they use Direct Link) and went for a good ride. Wow what a difference. She pulls hard all the way through the rpm range. I'm really impressed no popping on decel and way better than Harleys stage 1 flash as you can see on the dyno sheet, blue is before and red is after. Money well spent, I definitely recommend going the dyno tune route. My 2008 Electra Glide Ultra has screamin eagle stage 1 air kit and vance and hines oval slip ons on it.

Pastor Ed,
That's a nice bump! Did you do any head work when you had the thing apart? I'm breaking a rule here with this next question; If you did or did not, what's your average MPG now?
