I HAD Carl's SPEED SHOP INSTALL Rinehart EXAUST AND A Carl's CAM AND DYNO NUMBERS ARE 99 HP 113 TORQ.

Got the bike back from Latus Motors after they installed a SE A/C, Rush Slip-Ons 1.75, Y-pipe mod, Race Tuner and Dyno tune, and also changed fork oil to the SE Heavy which I think is 20wt. WOW!! What a difference! 96 hp and 113 ft/lbs. Now it runs like my idea of how aHarley should run. It pulls HARD and sounds great! The fork oil change was amazing too- now the fork feels like a european sports sedan instead of a '57 Ford with broken shocks! Before I felt all the bumps, big and small- now I don't feel ANY!

I also did a 'Jeff's Road Test Dyno'- before and after runs from 60-80 mph in 6th, 60-80 mph in 5th, and 2000-5000 rpm in 3rd. I just snapped open the throttle and timed how long it took to do the run I did the 60-80 runs because that's what the bike magazines do, usually in top gear, but I'll usually be in 5th going 60, so that's why I did that one. I did the 3rd gear run because that works the bike more, but there is no shifting so it a easy run to do, and it's the rpm band I'll do most of my riding in. By the way it was very hard to get consistent times so these are all the average of about 5 runs.

So did the motor work make a difference?

Before After
60-80 6th gear 6.3 sec. 5.9 sec. Stills seems a liitle slow- I think it doesn't like pulling 6th at this low rpm
60-80 5th gear 5.0 4.3 Very nice improvement, right in the band I'll be riding in at 60 mph
2000-3000 3rd gear 6.1 5.6 Runs a lot harder now, this is fun!

Thanks to everybody who made posts of this site about the mods- different exhaust, fork oil, heated seat (mine was plugged into the accessory connector, and dealer didn't know about this issue before).

Thanks to everybody who said 'HI' in the new member section also!

Now- I got some requests to post some pictures, but I don't know where- it looks like the gallery is just for full members, and you can only put one picture in each post? Can anybody tell me how to post 4-5 picutes at one time?

Thanks and happy riding, Jeff

PS On the dyno chart the base line run has to be wrong- there is no way it was making 88 hp and 106 ft/lbs stock. This is probably before the dyno tune but after the other mods were installed.

Sometimes random thoughts appear from seeminly nowhere. Saw this thread with a new active post. Then the thought occurs:

"Is the guy that runs a dyno a dynocologist?"

Jman, thanks for the PM and the numbers look great. I hear you about the rain in Eugene, same up here north of Seattle, it has to stop sometime.

Looks like your dynocologist did a great job with the set up. Hope to catch you on the road this summer.

Jman,
The dyno looks great, and the butt test proves it.

Nothing like having your scooter run to its potential. Don't worry the weather will break soon and you'll really be able to get out and enjoy some time in the wind.

Ride Safe,
Fired00d

Aren't those numbers low for the cam/mods you've done? Or is that just a baseline before you get the RB's?

I agree, everyone kept pointing to the exhaust as holding her back (SE II slip ons).......thats why the RB exhaust install......but.....the black holes are not there free flowing pipes either (sound restrictive)

RB Racing told me these pipes can get 3-4 more HP, by drilling out the opening..........but then it defeats the sound issue.

Well the results are in.. I want to hear what you guys think about the looks of the power band. Also look at where the Tourque starts 1500 not bad!

110 Stage 1, SE 251 Cams, SE Valve Springs , Adjustable Push Rods, SERT, Dual Reinharts

NOTE FOR THE WRENCHES: Up garade the push rods the first set tried on this motor bent, bent bad! The wrench has them on the magnet in his tool box.

I think it's excellent. Looks like it's all right where you want it. And stays there too. I just can't get past staying with the chain drive. But that thing's gotta pull like a mutha! Man, have fun with it 3z's!

Hoist!

Thanks Hoist, yes it pulls hard! It really does have a forgiving power band..

Thanks for your input
