Default Dyno Results Help

I had my bike dynoed yesterday and need help if the results look correct for SE 255 cams? The dealer had a special on dyno tuning so I had it dynoed tuned. I have a TTS Mastertuner and tuned the bike myself. Here are the results before and after the tune. I have SE 255 cams, V&H's true duals. monster ovals and SE heavy breather. Please tell me if my dyno sheet looks correct or should I have better results? Thanks for any comments or info.

I don't have direct experience with 255s but your results look good to me, looks like the tune gained you about 5 hp &tq, what were you expecting or looking for?

Truthfully I think you should have better #'s than that. My '07 dyna pulled 76hp/92tq with just a stage 1 done. Unless baggers put out considerably less power than the other models, I would've thought with cams you would have higher #'s.

How does the bike run/ride? I have the 255's with Rinehart TD's and the bike runs real good! After a couple hundred miles on the PC-V & auto tune (base mapped by Fuel Moto) I never felt the need for a dyno tune. Starting a 103 build next week with diffrent cams and hoping the new base map will work as well as this one has!

Seems like a good tune would take more than 66 minutes.

I got smoked by that exact set-up yesterday! SE255 cams made a BIG difference in his bike! I was stock doing about 90mph side by side thinking I was keeping up, he dropped a gear and drove off! So, you might want to see how it runs out.....Thinking about this set-up myself now!

That's what I thought also....only 66 minutes. It seems to run fine...wasn't sure what to expect as far as numbers go. It has plenty of low end and runs smooth. Was thinking about doing a 103...but the dealer said there wouldn't be much of a improvement unless I had headwork done for an additional $1,000. I think the cams will do for now...

I agree but, not on the stealears $1,000. job!! Not on a something as mild as a 103! I'm sending my heads to these guys, a lot of guys on here have been very happy with their work! Good reading too!
