Yeah, they get around that with the footnote....Values may change from country or region.
In other words they just through a bullshit estimate out there.

Did a little more checking the 102lb was for the police models and it has a higher comprestion ratio 9.6:1 instead of 9.2:1 Glad to hear that yours runs better after the tune Ive been considering the same. Were you happy with the TTS?

Happy with the tune so far. Haven't really had a chance to run it hard. Just took it out for a short spin. Too friggin cold. No more popping on decel, runs smoother. Definitely was running cooler, it was only 44 degrees today Occasional pop if I Blip the throttle while at a light. Hopefully I'll get one more warm day.
TTS $395
Dyno $450
1K Service $185

harley's numbers are given at the crank and the above sheets are at the rear wheel. You loose about 15-18% from the crank to the rear wheel.

My tune ran $400 and took around 4 hours. The bike runs great, certainly better than I was able to get it doing the tuning myself. The FLHTK 103's compression is 9.7:1, the 102 ft. lbs. is at the crank.

Dave's shop is 200 miles from my place, and it's well worth the trip as far as I'm concerned.

After 57 years, I got smart. I trailered the bike for the 1.5 to 2 hour ride. The cab of my F150 was nice and warm.
