It should move pretty fast. (pun intended) ;D Seriously just a run on the dyno w/o tuning isn't going to take that long at all... pull bike on dyno, strap it down, hook a couple cables, then let it rip. [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

I assume the whole point is to get your bike on the Dyno, then sell you what you need to improve it. If the bike in front of you is getting 115 lbs torque, you know you will want 116. ;) I think it is a great marketing idea. [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] Remember who is doing this. ;D

Our local did this a couple of years back.  The turnout was prety good, but not overwhelming.  I think they missed out on some good $'s by not doing it up right with a results board so everyone could see what everyone else was putting down.  They ran 1 pull each and gave you a print out.

They never did it again, so I guess it didn't generate much business for them.

Well folks, just came home from the dealer and their marketing plan worked great. Had bikes lined up all day for the free dyno, plenty of HD Xtreme reps there to suggest how to improve the dyno numbers. I was surprised they could not have been more helpful and NOT suggesting just se parts. We had a long talk about Zippers and the techs were very complentary. IMHO when your dealer schedules the HD Xtreme event, it is well worth a visit. [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]
