2012 FLTRXSE TQ Increase

<< < (2/4) > >>

HDCrazy:
I Found it in the brochure. It does make sense though... They commented in the review at Molorcycle USA the Road Glide felt faster, more responsive

FLSTFI Dave:
I did not notice that in my CVO book.  I just looked after reading this and it does say 122 torque.

So if that is correct, what was done to change it.

I know in 09, there were different torque specs for different CVO motors depending on the bike.

Does this mean the 12 will out accelerate the 09?

Beemer:
I believe they've also changed the compensator again as well. 

Also, someone on here who test rode one said it sounded louder than a stock CVO...that may mean an exhaust change.  That coupled with intake and a tweaked map might be the reason. 

Then again, don't believe everything you read in those pamphlets.  They stated the 09SERG seat was all leather with buffalo hide inserts...NOT!

This is from the CVO book.



It also has the SG CVO with a TQ of 118. Still be nice to know what they changed.

Exactly (or on the internet :))... more then likely one is a "typo".  :(
