What did you do to your Dyna today?
I offered to help him to pay forward on the forum.

Sorry have not had a chance yet. Did ride 150 miles and really she road great. Going to get some Measurement this week. and again thank you.
Put about 300 miles on it after my winter projects (RR3, Target Tune, and AXEO fork kit), now she sounds smooth, runs smooth, and rides smooth. Still have some fine tuning on the map to do, otherwise no complaints.

Your LRS looks awesome!
I was up till 1:30 last night buttoning everything up so I could ride today. I put the new Lowbrow 2-1 on (this one didn’t melt), installed a Hayden primary chain tensioner, primary fluid change, and swapped my touring shocks out for the fxdls premium ride shocks I picked up off another forum member. After a 40 mile ride I’m undecided on the shocks. The touring shocks definitely feel better, but they don’t feel as controlled in corners as the fxdls shocks.
The lowbrow exhaust sounds really mild at idle but definitely opens up to a nice deep throaty roar under acceleration. I’ve only ridden it for 40 or so miles and it’s been almost 6 months since I’ve ridden this bike so I can’t really speak on any performance lost or gained. I’m going to take the long way home this afternoon and really put it through the paces.

Added a 24" sissy bar from The Forge so I dont have to ride around with a backpack sweating my @ss off. Threw on some new rear shocks to lower it a bit. Shocks are drag specialties ride height adjustable, nothing spectacular but definitely an improvement over stock. Currently sitting at 11.5". Dont mind the winter beater in the background.

Looking good, Todd. I got everything buttoned back up last night and went for a short ride. It felt very sluggish on the ride so today I updated the base map to the larger bore throttle body, higher compression heads, higher flow injectors, and used the target AFRs from my old map. Did 20 miles hard on the throttle today and it did much better. I noticed a little oil at the base of the front cylinder though. Hopefully that was during the work and not after putting it back together.
I wasn't sure if I should file the edges of the new heads so that they'd match the cylinders but I thought it might look ok and I wanted the extra surface area for cooling. I don't know if I like it, but it doesn't look bad to me.
