Thumbs up Doc's Performance Tuning

Doc tuned my RGU last week and what a difference! I had a SE Tuner and an HD down load already installed. Doc only uses the TTS Mastertune when he tunes a bike. I cannot explain all the differences but the dyno and my bike can tell the difference. Took about 5 hrs including lunch to complete the job. 6th gear was totally useless before. HD service manager told me ''yeah, we have that problem with the 103's and 254e cams. Spark knock was really bad. My engine now sounds happy and is smooth as silk. No spark knock at all. I actually tried to get it to ping and it just won't. As Doc worked the computer on the dyno I could actually hear the exhaust note cleaning up. If you are looking for a great tune I can recommend Doc highly. His shop is in Minneola Fl. I had a good time there. My final #s were 87 hp and 102 tq. Fuel mileage is a little better and my bike is now fun to ride.

Was there at DOC's this past Saturday. He also tuned by 2012 RGU. What an incredible difference. Doc is a great guy who provides quality service. Trailered my bike for 4 hours one way to have Doc perform the tune. Worth the 8 hours round tripe.

Rocky met me at the overhead door when I pulled in. He is a hoot.

Yep, Doc is very good. I've had two bikes tuned by him so far, and both ran great.
