I finally got the time to take my R3T to the dyno yesterday to see how the new Tuneboy tune was working. The results were pretty good, 110HP/140TQ. However the bike was running too lean (approaching 16:1), above 5000 RPMs.
I sent Wayne a copy of the dyno sheet and when I woke up this morning I had a new tune in my inbox. In my book, that's excellent customer service.
Took a run back over to the dyno this morning and the A/F ratio was down below 14:1 for the full run. The results were 117HP/138TQ. Interesting that the torque was down just a bit, but it did maintain a higher level longer with the richer tune.
My goal when I started was to regain a good portion of the lost horsepower on the Touring model. Given that the magazine tests I've read range from 80.5/122 to 93.5/139 I think I've achieved this. Also, with most magazine tests you don't know what kind of dyno they used. My results were from a Dynojet 250. I would suspect that the remaining power loss over the Standard/Classic models could be attributed to the different throttle body and possibly the different exhaust configuration.
For the record, along with the Tuneboy tune, I have D&D exhaust, drop in K&N filter, and have removed the under seat snorkel.
