Yeah. I pretty much lost faith in my local dealers ability to dyno my bike right. Even when they did the cam install, I got it back with an oil leak and the bottoms of my saddle bags all scraped up. They fixed the oil leak( said it was something other than what was done when they did cams) go figure....I'm not quite sure what they are going to do about the bags...The only good thing working for situation is that they are not charging anymore for the dyno time. It's under warranty. The only thing left to concider is the total meltdown of the engine. Again, it's still under warranty. This "Doc" guy sounds very knowlageable. I think I'll give him a call.

You said 14 hours on the dyno. Was that a typo?
And it still is not satisfactory?
This guy is either a rank amateur when it comes to tuning a Harley or a crook. Maybe both. Why the dyno anyway? Are you racing your bagger?
So many questions.

No. That is not a typo. The performance is great but it's running way too hot(2-3 times more than stock). Why the dyno? Have you been reading this entire post? I had se211 cams w/ stage 1 a/c and se pro tuner( dyno tuning required ) And no I don't race it, but I do expect the tuning to be right after spending $2000. The tech is actually a nice guy, just not enough experience with tuning. He might be the new guy in the shop and everyone else is letting him sink or swim with his abilities. Too bad it's with my bike, not his.
