I agree with above, if they were a competent dealer they would not have given you back your bike in it's present condition. If they were worth their weight in salt, they'd have called you and told you that it's on, but that they need to tune it or whatevery they had to do to it in order for it to run correctly. The fact that they gave you your bike in it's present condition tells me volumes. I'd either go to another more competent dealer, or an indy that you trust, and I'm guessing that you definitely need to have a dyno done.

the only comment i can make is i feel sorry for you,hd dealers just want the money why would any one pay hd for any parts that should should have been installed in the first place. i have seen a lot of promises come from the dealer on thier builds and they are far less superior then friends that have gone totally after market with S&S parts,fueling makes good parts and any good machine shop can shave the heads and port and polish them and they can also bore cyclinders for you.B ut in all honestly it always seems like its the new rider that dose not have any harley experience that puts the bill on the cheap talk of the stealers.(tell the stupid S.O.B'S fix it or get your money back)and if they refuse to work work you just start showing up on saturdays when they are having thier welfare feeds for the hog members and then get in to a shouting match with the service manager!!!!!

Phil M is correct
255 cam....HD out of box mod....no tuner chip mod....no dyno....no pushrod check or change. I do not have unrealistic expectations but I do feel bike is "flat" between 2500 and 3000K .....an it runs rougher when under torque at that RPM....I dont want a high performance bike I want a touring bike to put alot of miles on and tell the world to KMA on......thanks all
