32 at speed is normal, 6 at idle when hot. These are high flow, low pressure systems.

I'm going to take it out later and see how it does, but the engine light still worries me.

When a check engine light comes on after engine start and then goes off after a few seconds, it is telling you there is an old "history" code stored on the ECM. If you clear the code, and the problem does not come back, you will not see the check engine light again....

It is most probably a history code related to the sensors being unplugged when you did your start up.... the code will tell you what the issue was...

Kind of what I was thinking. Is unplugging the battery for a little while going to clear it?

Probably going to be your best bet...are you using a HD dealership or an indy to perform the dyno and what is the cost?

Thanks

Using an Indy, $300 cash for custom map build. Never had a bike dynoed, will I get the map download on a cd after or something?
