This will be in my "09 RG.
Only 1400 miles on it.
Just had my 107 tuned today at my local HD. 110 hp and 118 torque were my numbers with Rinehart TD. I am very pleased with my build and would recommend HQ to any one wanting to upgrade their engine.
Is it just me or is that extreamly lean?? Please tell me the A/F ratio isn't accurate on the graph.
It is a little on the lean side, but I'm not sure I would consider it extremely lean. It's one of the reasons I stated earlier that there is probably more in there. Probably safe to assume timing wasn't necessarily messed with either.
A few things to consider:
1) That graph only represents full throttle. No way to tell in that chart what the part throttle AFR is.
2) These HQ motors rev pretty quick, so you're really not in the "lean zone" under full throttle for very long. Doesn't mean it shouldn't be improved if there are rideability issues though.
3) This is a TBW bike. Peak numbers on those bikes are not as high as the cable bikes.
Okay, back to the issue at hand.... what happened to BP's avitar?????????? I am thinking, Prudes, religious fanatics, un-ameriican gay bastads (no SP), big brother, stifiling personal offendidness, nanny statisim??????
Motor
I kept the lowers off and ride Miami traffic, runs way cooler than my 07 RKC with the HD 103 with same set up. I get on it pretty hard in the upper gears and no pinging. I dont know what to say myself but it runs pretty good but I think there is a little more TQ there too. Remember my instructions to the tuner were MPG TQ HP in that order. I suspect Phils guy will dial it in a little better. I am happy for now.
