So; Carpenter's original tune with MR12 race gas was 253 HP/181 Tq. With K&N's added and running 93 pump gas it was at 234 HP/ 171 TQ before the recent tune by my local shop.

The final numbers are 238 HP/ 177 Tq. It doesn't look too different at first glance of the chart. But they really did a great job of smoothing out the power delivery. I noticed the difference immediately when I rode it home. There aren't any more laggy or dead spots through the RPM's like there was with the carpenter base map. Blue line is the baseline. Red line is the re-tune.

While it is down 15 HP and 4 Tq with pump gas and filters, it still demands respect from the rider. It is a severely quick bike... I love it. I might change my mind on the sale.... HAHA!

No, Sir. Thanks though.

jesse please advise if you have any idea about reasonable shipping expenses to one of the northern european harbours

 

[Jesse]

I haven't the slightest idea. I will see what I can find out though. What is the final destination?

 

[priam]

there is a lot of convenient harbours in the northern europe serving europe-usa regular shipping lines.
dutch rotterdam, german bremerhaven or hamburg etc. the best option would be one of polish harbours straight from the usa without shifting. certainly final price is very important factor.

Jesse, was that you I met at Stu's Triumph in Fort Myers the other day? If so, how did the test ride go on the new R3R?

If this is the same Jesse I met while picking up a TPS for my Rocket, I have to say this is one fine gentleman. We were making small talk at the shop. I mentioned the couple of problems I was having while in Florida with my Rocket and the fact that I hadn't brought many tools to troubleshoot/fix. Without hesitating, he offered to have me come over to his place to use his tools. Hats off to this fine gentlemen.

Hope you sell the beast. Give us a report on the one you test road. Many thanks.

Yep! Guilty. Haha. Thanks for the kind words. I'm always happy to help

The test ride was fun! It's a really nice bike. Very balanced and poised handling, smooth power delivery all through the rev range. The transmission is a work of art. The electrics have been updated perfectly -in my opinion. The fit and finish of the bike appears to be of high quality and worth every penny.

It doesn't pull like my carpenter bike, but it's no slouch either. Still a very quick bike.

I think I'll buy one... in red. :-D
