When Dr Dyno told me it is pretty good, it made me smile. I had a conservative goal in mind, and was very happy with the results and I left with a lot more money in my pocket than I thought I would. No it was not perfect, and certainly more experienced people would have done a better job, but for me, my first time, it was OK. He checked the timing and changed the throttle cable setup a little. The last run was 103.96hp and 114.05 torque - we decided that was good enough.

This is the stock 113 Ultima using 4" cvo mufflers with 1.75 Fullsac baffles. This is a very quiet setup compared to most other bikes we heard today. So far it has been running pretty good, it does have some tapping noise but Fred didn't seem to think it was bad, all he said was the lowers, wind deflectors etc make the engine noises sound louder than than on open bikes.

Fred knows his stuff, if he said it he meant it. If he gave you any "suggestions" take heed and try them. Every year when he comes to Americade we get our winter builds to go there for some final tweaking. Did he still have his black eyes from hitting himself in the face with a pry bar??? He looked like a racoon at Americade. If you bring a thumb drive he will download your info for you.

 

Thanks John, I liked Fred. It would have been nicer yet if it had been cooler. We got there early and Fred got there late and he had a fellow ahead of us so we spent more time in the heat than we care to. We walked around the fairgrounds, but there really were not any cool places.
