Default I saw and heard it - 120R

Well I went to the dealership. It is installed.

I've seen the bike fired up, I've felt and wicked the throttle. I fully hoped to ride it home today. But a good rainstorm and apparently some good sense declined...

It also didn't have the painted [vivid black] inner fairing installed.[oops]

SO

Tuesday / Wednesday.

Haven't seen the dyno sheet, but peaked @ 129 HP. 120 Crate + Supertrapp + SE Heavy Breather. Dunno the torque yet. I guess that's at the wheel.

Break in is next...

Congrats on the new build! Way to use some self-control to not unleash a brand new 120R in the rain!

"in the rain"---it's Vancouver--- if he doesn't ride in the rain he'll never ride! ( sorry HS)

Let me know how many discs you end up using on the supertrapp- did the tuner try adjusting up or down?
do you have sheets showing the result of disc changes...just wondering.

Congrats.

As far as I know he tuned for torque, and used the existing cams.

For sure i'll update you.

no separate dyno's.

haven't talked to tuner yet. Just maintenance manager.

Thanks for justifying my no-rain ride.

[only rain - not snow]

No as loud as you'd think [first impression] so that is nice. Louder than what I had though.

I might delve into YouTube land. we'll see....

I was a former pipeaholic, spent more money on pipes than I would like to admit, the Supertrapp is the best sound, fit and performance without blowing your ear drums IMO. I get alot of compliments on the sound as well.

are they going to do a final tune once you break it in? I cant believe they would do a full out race tune on a motor that was not broken in. Mine is supposed to get a preliminary tune done on Tue and then once I get some miles on it they will finish it off
