These guys know motors. One of the tuners rode the bike and said it accelerated like a sport bike. They did a great job on my Indian with 116 big bore kit also. David said he has never seen a gain like that with just a compression increase, cams and an exhaust. I’ll have find his Facebook post and copy it here, it is remarkable. They are really bragging about this bike.
Dr. D.---curious how much $$$$$ you invested in this recent work? would like to consider this on my 2006 classic.The owner of Custom Cycle Corner called me tonight and said my bike was done. I asked if this was an early April Fools joke and he assured me it was not.
To recap the build it was K&N triple filters, Lush cams and HC pistons with a Paul Bryant full system tune by a download from Neville and finished on a dyno with a PCV. The numbers are a very good to me at 166.35 tq and 203.3 hp at 7500 rpm.
I will pick it up this weekend come what ever weather.
As @Steel says,"You gotta pay to play" You can easily spend 5k on this kinda power, unless you do it yourself. Cams, air cleaners, pistons, exhaust, PCV or whatever, 100 bucks an hour. Start saving. Better do a clutch while your at it. Hows your tranny? Or are you still considering? Speed is a money pit and that bike is worth about 30k in my eyes. Money well spent. Hope Sandy doesn't read this
Just think if you sink that $5K into a Harley you're lucky to gain 20 hp. This added over 75 hp. Definitely more bang for the buck.
Nah Steel, ya got it all wrong
On my Trident with a skinny 120 section rear tyre I used to brake hard and slide into corners, then power slide out.
When I got the Rocket I tried to do the same thing ... didn't work.
I hit the brake hard so as to set up a slide into the corner (like drift cars do) but too much rubber, I just stopped !
I had to let the brake off, go forward to the corner then proceed
I agree and it did cost and took quite a while waiting for the custom pats to come in from the other side of the world. I had to buy a pipe system, a clutch, cams and pistons, air cleaners and a PCV. I had to have it all tuned and put together with all the little things like gaskets and head bolts and a new GPS. I do not know the final accurate numbers and I'm not even going to look it up. I don't care the money is spent and gone, over and out. But after being asked to the question I am not afraid to guess at the costs. I'd say $6500 sounds pretty close.
What evidence do you have to support that claim?You ride like a monster!
I know it's plain as day on the dyno sheet but I believe you're making more TQ than that.
Congrats!
