The bike runs great and has plenty of throttle in every gear, next winter I'll look at some head work and more than just stock compression. After all the work and repairs I was tapped (stator/regulator/battery/cams/roller rockers/lifters/billet cam plate w/high flow oil pump/adjustable push rods/ installing rear agitator wheel and tire/dyno)
I'm learning the HARD way "if you want to play you have to pay!"
nice!! have you had a chance to drive it normal (ya! right!) to see what the gas mileage is? You have about 10 more hp than me, and would like to compare MPG. keep us posted.
Note: gas mileage suffers tremendously while having a real big smile on your face!!!
I find it very odd that the dyno guy started the pull at 3200 rpm.
I hate to be "that guy", but there's that. And it's STD not SAE. And though it's a nice-looking curve, I'd expect more oomph from the collection of parts there.
I'm sure the bike is a riot to ride, but it just seems like there's something missing.
