It pulls great out of the hole. You can break the rear loose or lift the front wheel at will. I try not to do either, but sometimes, you just can't help yourself! ::)

Thanks Q, Mark and Mike! You got that right! They never have problems taking your money, but still continue to dick you around! That all ends now! BTW What real cams should I be looking at now? If I can't come to terms with this new dealer, which BTW is way out of my way which sucks too, there's no way I'm using any HD parts. If I'm giving up my w.....ty, they got a better chance of seeing God than ever seeing another nickel of my hard earned cash! FHD, FTW, and FTD!!! I might just have my tuner do everything now! >:(

Hoist,

Just happened to tune in on this marathon thread... looks like you're reaching the point where I was a year ago... I've been MOCO free for over a year now and have never looked back. I decided to get back to the basics of riding to ride and not supporting the MOCO bottom line. No HOG chapter, nothin'. Feels REAL good. No more new Harleys for me. Don't get me wrong, I love my scoot, I just quit lining the MOCOs pockets. All my work is now done by an independent and I'm loving it.
Hope all works out well for you. Remember ... ride & enjoy ... life's too short for anything else!!  8)

and if you use good aftermarket parts, you might not need that warranty at all.  If you do, however, it will probably be better and easier than dealing with the MoFoCo.

Hey gang, I'm back! And there's nothing better than the no bullchit approach! To anything!!! ;D

Well, after 8 grueling hours of swapping pipes and tuning, I'm back where I started. Last night I changed to the Standard Fatcat muffler and we retuned the bike with it on. On my motor, this thing is a dog! Lost about 9 ft-lbs with it. We tuned and tuned and tuned. My motor wants the biggest chit it can get! Joe was getting annoyed that he couldn't get better performance out of it. We went back to his house and discussed it for hours more. I decided that since the bike ran so good before, I'd put the quiet performance muffler back on. I did that first thing this morning and Joe threw it back up on the Dyno. He first started with the new map from the nite before and started tweaking from there. In the end, the bike ran best with the original map I rode up there with. We did some minor tweaking from there to get rid of most of the popping. He did a dynamite tune the first time and we couldn't do any better today. I'm looking into some custom Supertrapps to try and quiet it down some. But it runs great like this. I'll get used to the noise and Binx will get some earplugs! ::)

So the numbers I posted in the Dyno thread in the SERK Section stand. 126.2 ft-lbs TQ and 120 HP. The bike runs smooth, cool, and has great power and pull. It was what I was hoping the build would turn into. No more, no less! Can't complain when you get what you expect. You always hope for a little more, but I got what I paid for and am very happy with the way the bike runs now. As long as it holds together that is! ;) We'll see about fooling around with it in the winter. But this is the build you'll see in HS! Bring your earplugs! ;D

Going in tomorrow to get the other things done. Then just waiting on my hard bags and I'll be done for the season! Overall, it was more effort than I thought, but I wasn't waiting or counting on HD to get my bike right for me. They don't build these for me. They build them for the masses. I know what I need my bike to do, and I'd be a fool to think that anyone but me could get it there! And as the famous Hubbard says, "There endeth the lesson"! :D

Thanks Don. I wouldn't ride it though if I were you. You flipped the other day when I described the shocks. I'm not sure how you're going to take riding it, then getting off of it. And I'm not taking that SEEG home instead either! ::) ;D

If your pipes are that loud, are you going to be able to stay behind me all week on the way to Hot Springs? Never mind, I can't believe I even asked that.

 I can't believe you ever posted it! ::)

But that's a great idea to get people to Rock and Roll a little. I'll just stay in front. If you can't take the noise, you'll have to pass me! :P
