Phil was last spotted traveling up I 35, doing a superman, body flapping in the wind, trying to hold on to that monster.

That's FUNNY!!!!!

Ok... I got the heavy diaphram spring installed in my Rivera Pro-Clutch, & now it holds.

I was able to go by Ed's last night and let him finish up my initial tune. The results were: 139/151. It rides and runs VERY nice. Ed did a fine job on the tune, as usual.


The "current config" is using a Boarzilla headpipe and a universal (Race Car) SuperTrapp muffler can with 13 disks and the open "RACE" end cap. I forgot to bring my disks, as I rode to work and went straight to Ed's. We did try running it w/o any end cap at the end, but it threw the tune way off & I didn't have time to hang around for a retune (even though he was willing).

Before anyone asks... "Yes", I am running a smaller cam than one might typically run in a 124. I already had the 590, and I frequently ride this bike on trips. For both of those reasons (not to mention that "dyno numbers" don;t mean dick to me) I stayed with the smaller 590, as compared to something like the TMan 662-2 or some of the mammoth Woods cams that end up in many BIG motors....

While I have a lot of tweak'n & test'n to go, I am very happy with the results.

I still have a number of additional pics to post, but it's time to ride now so.... It's gonna be a best effort on that front.
