Ok went to the stealer today to take the new air filter to them, the guy that was tuning my bike is off till Monday so I took it for a 50 mile ride.
Felt real good power was smooth, took it easy for about 30 miles and then decided to get in it a little.

1st gear around 2000rpm wacked the throttle front wheel came up briefly don’t know how high I was holding on, 2nd gear hoped the front again 3rd may have hoped or just got the preload out of the forks.

Felt real good hell I started to just take it home but I done have the new air cleaner so I will wait till Monday and see if there is a change

He won't.
He's scared of the extra power.

One thing nice, you already have loads of power. Once you get used to the power, you will have room for some easy gain later when you get bored with the current power.
It's all good.

(Get the pipes, man,....) He he!

Ok question for you guys. If I went with a Fat Cat what baffle would I need and would this pipe be sufficient for a larger build (117 or 120) if I done that in the future?

My last tune to try and get some decent MPG and not kill the power was 107HP and 116ft/lb. I know theres more torque in a HQ build, but not much more HP, but I could care less at 107HP. I've got 110ft/lb at 2700 RPM and 116 at 3K. You do gotta LOVE the torque on a bagger. Still I'd like more...125 sounds nice with a little more advance timing please....Ed
