Default Cycle Doctor in Costa Mesa, CA for a Dyno anyone?

I know that Jasnusc had his bike dynoed there, has anyone else been to the Cycle Doctor? I am planning on going but am always interested in more reviews and what kind of numbers you netted along with Dyno sheets. I don't have time to pout through the Dyno thread today.

Thanks!

Drew

Geoff (Cycledoctor) is a perfectionist. Tell him what you want, he'll make it happen. I hauled my '07 FLTR down to him to address rideability issues that the original tuner tried twice to fix. Geoff listened to what I wanted and got it fixed. He's not cheap, he's very thorough, and I don't hesitate to recommend him. Do a search for Cycledoctor in the forums.

Drew, If your running a PC, you may want to check out Mickey Cohen. www.mickeycohenmotorsports.com He tuned my old bike & several of my buddies bikes. The guy is a Power Commander guru! Dare I say the "Jamie" of the west coast!?!?

I have already done that, but am seeking even more input as once I make a decision I want all the info I can get. It sounds like I have made a good decision. Thanks!

They are great, but will not tune my power commander.

I know you are already aware of my post but I just wanted to chime in and say how happy I was with it.

They just called me the other day out of the blue to ask how I was doing, how the bike was running and to make sure I was still happy.

Very cool guys and very good customer service.

Cycledoctor did a Stage 1 and a tune on my 2010 Ultra Limited about a month ago. Like someone said they weren't cheap but they did a great job and it was ready when promised.

I was mostly looking to reduce the heat coming off the engine and pipes. It had gotten to the point that my wife didn't want to ride on it. If I picked up a little power in the process that would be great. After the Stage one ( V&H Power Duals, Big Sucker and Screaming Eagle mufflers) plus a dyno tune with TTS Mastertune the bike is transformed.

The heat is dramaticaly reduced as I hoped and I did pick up a little grunt. I don't have the dyno sheet with me but I think it wound up running 77 hp and 89 lb-ft of torque. The biggest improvement other than the heat reduction is in the bike's drivability -- more power, fewer downshift and much better, more linear throttle response. This is the way it should have run from H-D.

So I would absolutely recommend them.

Hope that helps.

A couple of you said he's not cheap. What did he charge you guys? I heard he won't let you wait on it and that he makes you leave it there all day.

While I have never had a bike tuned by him I have heard nothing but good things.
