A chopper shop, got some connections with zippers a short distance from my home has kindly offered to help me out with some of the production issues with my bike. This is what he said about my dyno sheet;
http://flhrsei.org/attachments/candyseegdyno.jpg LOOKING AT THE GRAPH DOES NOT TELL US VERY MUCH. THAT WAS
A 100% THROTTLE PULL, IN OTHER WORDS "WIDE OPEN THROTTLE"
THAT AREA LOOKS GOOD AS FAR AS THE AIR/FUEL GOES. THE PROBLEM
IS, HOW OFTEN ARE YOU AT 100% THROTTLE? MAYBE .5%. IT IS A
SHAME THE H-D SHOP IS SO SET ON THE RACE TUNER. THE POWER
COMMANDER DOES A BETTER JOB, FASTER, AND FOR CONCIDERABLY
LESS MONEY. I WAS A INSTRUCTOR AT MMI (MOTORCYCLES MECHANICS
INSTITUTE)IN PHOENIX AND I TAUGHT THE SCREAMIN' EAGLE
PERFORMANCE CLASSES FOR HARLEY-DAVIDSON. I HAD TO TEACH THE
GUYS ABOUT THE RACE TUNER, AT THE END OF THE PROGRAM I WOULD
SHOW THE STUDENTS THE POWER COMMANDER SYSTEM AND THEY WERE
AMAZED THAT HOW MUCH OF A BETTER SYSTEM IT WAS. THE RACE
TUNER TRYS TO MAKE THE BIKE BE ABLE TO PASS EPA REQUIREMENTS.
THE ACHIEVE THIS BY MAKING THE ENGINE RUN LEAN IN THE LOWER
THROTTLE POSITIONS (THIS IS THE ONLY AREA EPA CHECKS, THIS IS
WHERE YOU NORMALY RIDE AT)THIS WILL GET THE EXHAUST TEMPS UP
PRETTY HI TO BURN OFF HYDROCARBONS. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS IS
IT WILL MAKE THE BIKE RUN HOTTER, DISCOLOR THE EXHAUST, AND
CAUSE POOR PART THROTTLE PERFORMANCE. ANYWAY, I AM SORRY TO
RAMBLE ON ABOUT THIS, BRING YOUR BIKE BY AND WE WILL BE MORE
THAN GLAD TO HELP YOU OUT IN ANYWAY WE CAN........JOHN MEADE
