Default CAN IT BE RICH???

JUST GOT MY 05 EG CLASSIC BACK FROM THE DEALER,
I HAD THE STAGE II BIG BORE KIT INSTALLED, PISTONS, SE-203 CAMS, NEW AC, HAD THE HEADS AND CYLANDERS DIAMOND CUT
HAD THE STAGE II FLASH DONE, BUT I HAVE A POWER COMMANDER, WHICH I HAVE NOT REINSTALLED YET.
( AVOIDING DEALER GREIF ) I'LL REINSTALL IT AS SOON AS I GET A COUPLE HUNDRED MILES ON HER.
I ALSO HAVE SE-II SLIPON MUFFLERS WITH THE BILLIT TIPS.
TODAY (SUNDAY ) WAS MY FIRST CHANCE TO PUT SOME MILES ON, APROX 100,
AFTER I GOT BACK HOME I NOTICED THE END OF THE MUFFLERS HAD A LOT OF BLACK SOOT ON THEM,
IT WAS NOT THERE BEFORE I LEFT, BECAUSE I CLEANED THE BIKE FROM TOP TO BOTTOM.
I ALSO HAD A BUDDY FOLLOWING ME AND HE NOTICED NOTHING ABNORMAL.

QUESTION? CAN IT BE RUNNING TO RICH? IS THIS POSSIBLE?

I WAS SUPRISED AT HOW MUCH OF A POWER INCREASE I HAD, SEAT OF THE PANTS.

I HAVENT DYNO'D IT YET, BUT I WILL AS SOON AS I CAN.

WHATS YOUR THOUGHTS?????

Yes, it could be too rich, but that is much better than too lean. Go ahead an ride it untl you get it tuned again and then have it checked.

I have the same setup on my bike with a new PCIII added this weekend. (Original setup had the HD download) Had the PCIII installed and dyno performed by Sabin Performance in Dallas. The HP was at 79 and Torque at 90. What really amazed me was the increase in torque in the low and mid range once the PCIII was tuned in.
