(Sorry Jamie, but honestly tuning is an art and I had only hoped to do no harm...)

2012 Ultra Limited 103" changes -Air Cleaner, Jackpot header tube, Jackpot tuned slash up slip ons, Woods 555 cam, Powervision tuner, Fuel Moto dyno tune.

Both these curves were done on the same day, same ambient conditions. My bike pulled 73hp straight from the factory (with about 1,800 miles) and 91 torque. With the above mods it pulled another 27hp and 22 ft/lbs torque (Net +37%hp, 24% torque!)

The best part of the story is after getting it off the dyno and on the street. I can say with absolute conviction that this bike runs absolutely flawlessly. No backfires, no pings, no popping on decel, nothing. I am pretty detailed and wouild not say this easily but it simply runs perfectly. Oh, and it pulls like a freight train now...

Running a business that is so exposed on the web is difficult. One of the reasons I chose Fuel Moto is their reputation for success, and for how they have dealt with difficult customers with respect. I am firmly throwing my endoresment to Jamie and his crew.

THANKS GUYS!

I spoke with another shop and they said the Woods 555 were a strong cam but had a stumbling issue at about 1500 rpm, Parking lot rpm. He said you could see it on several Dino sheets. Any issues as described?

Jamie and crew did the exact same setup for me a few days after this one (9/21), mine was a 2012 Street Glide with slash downs, not like there is a difference. What an amazing difference it made in performance. After a weekend of riding with some old friends out of state, I believe Jamie will be seeing even some more business soon, everyone was very impressed with the way it runs, I know I sure am. It's smooth, it has a LOT of pull and even the gas mileage is good, at least on the toll road. Around town I have this wrist problem, seems I can only twist the throttle closed or wide open, hard to get anywhere in between.

HERE'S TO FUEL MOTO!

Wow, great numbers. I wonder what the 777s could pull in your motor. I can't wait to have the FM 107 put in my bike next June.

Yeah, I know I could. Theres still the little obstacle of taking all that time to do it. I can't get away from work long enough to do stuff like that. Just envious of you all that can do this kinda stuff. Wish there was a place like this near where I live!
