Mud, I apologize for losing my cool but dang it...anyway, "fork it" ha ha. Good one. Thats a nice ride. I like that sort of street fighter look on the dyna. Appreciate the pics.
RSA...the install went fine. I could have used a 2nd pair of hands but I got 'r done. I'm about ready to update the map on my PCIII and take her for the maiden voyage. Maybe someone reading this can forward me a better map than the canned one from Dynojet???!!!??? Sorry I didn't get back to you bout your situation. I was never able to get in touch with my buddy. He's tough to nail down sometimes.
To the gentleman who suggested the ball-end allen wrench. I tried it before going to drastic measures and was able to grab the screw just enough to loosen it to where I needed it. I really appreciate that. Thanks.
Saint, I did try the channel lock idea but I don't have any small ones, only large "get the job done now" ones. No way I could get it in there. At least I tried it and will remember that as an option next time.

So, I updated the map and went for a ride. One word: WOW. I'm diggin the gain in performance. I went up the road a piece and then turned around. When I did, I got on it a bit and I think the front wheel may have left the pavement just a bit. I honestly didn't expect it.
As for the sound, it's a bit tinny but I think I can definitely live with it. The SEII's were definitely a little deeper tone. I'm gonna hold onto them for a bit before throwing them up for sale, just to make sure this is what I want.
I'll definitely need to get at least the front heat shield as I already burned my boot on it. Guess I'm just marking my territory.
