Guys, the bike is still in the shop so I do not have the numbers yet. It had some major tuning issues Harvey is trying to get worked out now. I asked Harvey if he thought 160hp was going to be realistic and he said "Man I think we are going to e in the 200hp range from what I see so far".

I got a call from Harvey this morning and he said the bike is not boosting for some reason. He is going to work on the boost controller and see whats going on but he did a Dyno run with ZERO turbo and it came out at 117hp on the base engine without a tune. I cannot imagine getting more than 50hp from the turbo which will put us back in the 160 range. I know the Methanol injection will allow for a higher boost but I am pretty sure Ill be lucky to see 50hp increase from a turbo right? I dunno.

I will say this, the bike was already faster than anything I had ever been on and I thought I had boost! It might be scary when he gets it right. Its all a mystery as to what the final numbers are going to be.....

It sounds nice but not to loud, no more than my 110 SE with Rienhart but it has BASS. I filled it up with race fuel (110 octane) down the road this morning and filled the Methanol tank. I rode all day pretty damn hard to get used to the bike. I met a guy that said he knew the bike and was present during a dyno run and that it was 165 at the rear wheel. I somehow doubt it, the dealer told me 160 and I doubt that to, but I am a HP skeptic. I have no idea how much HP the bike REALLY has but I can say this for sure, I cannot give it full throttle and hold on the the handle bars. My hands hurt from trying to hold on all day. I figure the bike sat for along time, the more I rode it the better it ran. Its a kick in the ass thats for sure, the boost comes on strong and the methanol keeps it from detonating. I have not ever driven or ridden anything as fast as this bike so whatever the HP, its enough. I let my friend ride it and he went down the road a short way turned around and came back, after parking the bike he said no thanks man, thats not for me and got back on his rice rocket. LOL!!!!!!!

Something else thats cool, ever gear shift is followed by a cool PSHHHHHHHHHHHHHT of the blow off valve releasing pressure, I know I am a big kid.

If that waste gate noise starts bothering you, one way to get rid of it is when you shift gears, don't let off the throttle, don't use the clutch and slam it into the next gear when you hit about 5500 RPM's!

You may want to buy a set of these first!

I traded in my CVO FLHRSE4 for a Road Glide. I will tweek my ride similar to yours in due time. I bought me a 2011 model.I'm still waiting to hear if I get bumped from the outfit because my main ride is NOT a CVO anymore. I just needed more room for me and the babe.

No its not good news at all so far. The mechanic gave up and said it was to complex for his shop. I am going to work the basic tune myself but I need a base PCV map for a turbo. Anyone out there help?

Thanks for the info, none of them could help. I ended up building my own map and am cruising happy now. Ill tweak as I go but it is smooth and strong and the mix seems to be good through the RPM range.
