Welcome aboard Crackers.... lots of smiles per mile yet to be had.  :drink:

There's an interesting story behind this bike guys. Maybe one day Mr. C will divulge said drama.

Thanks Wiz. This was a purchase that was about 3 months in the making but was not planned. Wiz was a part of this journey and has been a great help in the matters that lead to wonderful bike.

I did a lot of research after I bought my Ultra Limited and decided to do a stage 1 air, V&H power duals, monster ovals and TTS. That turned out to be the easiest part of the project. After having everything installed I found a shop to do the dyno. This decision would prove to be a big mistake.

It is a 4.5 hr drive one way to this dealer and a one night hotel stay. The dyno tech was trained on the TTS but must have been sleeping during class. I noticed on the way home that I had a lot of popping and it just didn't feel right. I sent a copy of the map to Wiz and in his words he said "I hope this isn't your dyno tune". He agreed I should send it to the instructor who trained the guy and I did. He wasn't pleased either.

Well after talking to the service manager they agreed to have a different person do the tune and they would pay for my stay and make me a deal I couldn't refuse. We worked out a deal and I was getting cams installed. This time the bike seemed to run a lot better when I left but of course new cam different feel it just took a little longer to find out things weren't good.

Got home loaded file on computer and there it was ...... bike was still set in Vtune mod. After all of this I was about done and ready for another goldwing. Wiz told me that when I got free time to let him know and we would work on doing a good Vtune which I was willing to try.

I own a archery business and last Saturday the GM of the dealership I bought my Ultra from (not responsible for any of the trouble I had) came in to by a bow for him and his son. While we worked with his son and with him to make their experience the best it could be we talked a little about everything I mentioned above and he offered to help out by having his people do my dyno tune so they could get experience with the TTS so others didn't go through what I did at no charge....I was floored.

We were really busy that day and he needed to get back so they left with his sons bow and said he would be back next week to get his. My wife and I really want the two of them to shoot together over the weekend so we closed shop and delivered his bow to him. This is not our local dealer they are close to a hr away but they are a great dealership. While there waiting for him to get free I just had to check out that CVO again. The guys there all knew I liked the bike but wasn't in a position to take a hit on a bike I just bought in June. J came over and said I should take that bike home and I laughed and then he showed me numbers.

I have never in all my years seen a dealer do what he done and I really can't thank them enough. They treated me more then fare when I bought my first bike but this was most likely a once in a life time deal. I would recommend that any one who is ever in Kansas City stop in at Worth Harley-Davidson. I almost forgot to mention but they arr still going to put my Fullsac pipes on and dyno this bike.

Wow I didn't mean to write a book. Lol.
