hoist and black diamond-------you can not go wrong with those yanks in maine. bean  and springer are serious with that factory-pro.

tep hoist, you may "lose" about 10 % off those big numbers you had but your tune will be CORRECT (and so will the hp/tq). be sure to ask bean for a wheelie demo!!!

I'm with ya Dennis. Numbers are just that. All depends on the dyno and how it's setup. Only care about one thing....the way it feels. If it pulls til it can blow and maybe get me some better mileage, run cool like it is now, and is smooth throughout, that's all that matters!

TODAY'S UPDATE:

Made it back from Ken & Cheri's today. Total trip mileage: 2400. Total miles on the new motor: 4500. Running great. Nice and cool. Hottest oil temp was this afternoon with 85deg temp & NYC traffic when I got home, was 250deg. That's been the absolute hottest so far and it's with M1 V-Twin. Didn't use any oil either.

The new repiped breather is working like a charm. NO MORE MESS!!!! Kuryaking Bluegrass Breather fittings and modified HPI backplate! That's the ticket!!!

Starting to get concerned about some new wobble at speed. Lost the rear wheel weight somewhere along the line. I'm not convinced that's it. I've noticed it since 2 new things were done together. The TP and that new POS D407 tire. I'm also having trouble getting the neck locked. I'm also suspecting something in the neck or bearings. Remember that bad pothole last year? Well we thought we were OK. Maybe not. Need to call Traxxion also and review the AK and bitubo settings with them too. I'll have to look into this much deeper. 140MPH bike can not have any of that whatsover!

Adirondacks trip is this coming weekend. Then getting scheduled with springer and Bean for SERT tune! Looking forward to seeing how she runs with the right tune in her. I can't imagine her running much better-although I know she can!

Hoist!

Have never seen a wheel balancing product from the Brian.  Is this something new to their product line?

Actually Don it's how they go their start making active balancers for top fuel drag race front wheels

Hallcraft Wire Wheels have a Balance Master sealed into the rim with silicone. You can run tubeless tires on em

Last I knew you could buy these discs that have a circular tube with mercury inside that bolt to you hub and active balance your wheels.

However, I haven't seen any ads for BM in some time. Don't know if they're out of business or not

They are still in business - Balance Masters, and they have active balancing for motorcycles see here.

Edit: That's active engine balancing.

I see they have balancers for truck wheels, RV wheels, driveshafts, engine crankshafts for Ultralights and motorcycle products I've used their stuff on the comp sproket and clutch inside the primary (they really work by the way on rigid mounted Evo motors) Maybe if you contact the company you can buy competition type stuff that's not shown on the website. Those Halcraft wire wheels I had spun so smooth. Oh well, nothing's forever.

I'd used them inside Softail Evos before also Brian.  But that's been awhile back now.  The wheel products I'd just not heard of before.  Nice to know a company that did good stuff along time ago is still out there doing good stuff.

TODAY'S UPDATE:

What year is this bike anyway? Notice anything new?

Hoist!
