Default Thanks Doc

Thanks, Doc.&nbsp\\; &nbsp\\;77.26hp/76.83tq&nbsp\\;These dyno numbers my not be impressive to most but I just want to say that a good dyno tune is worth the cost. I had 75hp/82tq last tune but the bike never ran as good as it does now. My bike is a stock 88 other than a Sert, D+D 2/1, and A/C. The bike runs better then ever, I was&nbsp\\;in Florida a couple&nbsp\\;of weeks ago and let Gator HD&nbsp\\;do the 7hr tune, great people, any how&nbsp\\;the&nbsp\\;next day I rode up to the NC rally and&nbsp\\;during the ride up there is when I notice how smooth the bike ran,&nbsp\\;the&nbsp\\;feel in the seat tq feels better than ever, even though it is less than my last dyno. No stumbles, hiccups, starts up like a champ, even fuel economy increased&nbsp\\;a couple of more miles to the gallon. I even accidentally started off in 2nd gear a couple of times and the bike didn't even buck on me, a little slower off the the light but pretty smooth still, at around 1500rpm still smooth not that I run her there but before the tune I couldn't do that without it bucking. So the drive ability is excellent. I want to thank Gator HD and Doc for the great tune. There is tune, and then there is DYNO tune, I'm a believer in a good tune.

88's imho are the workhorse of the twincams. small proven improvements yield big bennies! wait till you punch it out!
