I'm up to 700 miles now..the weather in DFW has been outstanding.  I have not dyno'ed the bike yet, debating if I'm gonna do it.  I pretty much have spent all I can afford right now and the onlything a dyno would do is make me spend money on something to improve the results.

Sturgis..still trying to coordinate with my buddies to see if their going..will let you know soon.

Cabo if the tech knows what he's doing on the dyno and the bike, he can squeeze another 10 hp and another 10 or 12 lb-ft torque out of what you already have.......no more money spent (other than they dyno tune).

Thanks you guys, I'm appreciating this, big time!

[mr_magoo]

No problem where here to help each other.

We're going to have one truely "limited edition" bike!  Especially if they go back to the Road Glide again next year.  Wooooohhooooooo I'm lovin this!!

[rturn2mow]

JCZ......was it a random statement or do you know something when you said "especially if they go back to the RoadGlide next year". I must know....I must I must I must [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif].

On a rumor note...I had seen apost in here somewhere where it was stated that Harley will not be putting the Revolution engine in any other bikes......talked to my handy dandy dealer and he said yes and could be in a year. Maybe that would be the next Screaming Eagle bike? A Revolution powered bagger.

He also told me you will start to see the mild versions of the 95 and 103 inchers as standard engines in coming years (as most of you probably already knew)

[JCZ]

return I don't know what they're going to do next year.....just rumor (and wishful thinking).

As for the revolution in any current model.....I was in Rapid City during the Sturgis rally in Aug. 2001 when Willy G first uncovered the new V-Rod.  At that time he said that that bike, motor and all was a new member to the Harley Davidson family.  And like any family, one member does not replace another but go through life together, side by side.  He went on to say that the V-twin as we know it, will generally stay what it is......that it will continue to be refined but will not be replaced by a liquid cooled motor or any version of the V-Rod.  That was only two years ago......I'd find it hard to believe that they changed their minds that quick.  JMHO

[mr_magoo]

As quiet as they kept the V Rod you never really know what HD is up to.  I have heard rumors that 06 is the last year for a carb and that a water cooled touring bike is in the works as well (emissions regs) but don't quote me.
