It's been awhile since Big Bores have hit the scene. Post up guys. Don't want the turbo crowd to think they are getting picked on.

I would think the torque numbers would be a little higher in 100+ range being it is a 1430?

1430 Big Bore (http://www.v-rodforums.com/gallery/showimage.php?i=6070&catid=searchresults&searchid=2455)Well its been a while since I have seen my bike. Not finished yet. Had problem with RT (would not recognize the bike-pos!) So...still on dyno awaiting RT. Hopefully this week I will have some numbers.!!

Brent; that is with Cary Faas pipe. Doesn't make the torque on the upper end. Different pipe; torque is on the high end. But who rides wide open all the time? I don't. I believe super traps put the torque on the high end but not on the low end. One of those things where ya just have to decide how you want to ride it and go with it. This was the dyno from the 4th break-in run. I am sure there is some left. Donald

Hey Rick. Whats with the corn? :) Can you believe the guys putting my bike back together (yes its hard to believe I still don't have it back) did not degree the cams...Should they have known that??? They had to pull motor back out and do it. Now done and on the dyno as we speak...I will say a prayer, but for a 1430 should you be getting more torque??? 145/90 is what I hope to get with my 1318 set up... of course the way my luck has been running I will probably lose some power when all is said and done :laugh:
Big ride this WE in the Bayou...I hope I am there. I definately aint showing up on that jap bike.

I`m getting 140rwhp and 98ft#`s of torque from my 1340. I did do extensive head work, cams and 58mm throttle bodies. Rusty and Brent and 6 or 7 others got to ride it in Kissemini on the 6th. On the 7th I went back on the dyno so these are fresh numbers. Paul Deiner and others saw the printout. Paul rode my bike and I rode his 148-150hp bike. We did 3 runs out behind the airport and ran neck and neck each time. FYI: Paul built my engine at Eagle HD.

Thats what I am talking about! Who ported your heads, cams?, I sure hope my numbers look like yours, but since I have not been able to ride my bike since fu*!&*g December...Can you describe the difference from your stock set up as far as seat of the pants?? I mean is it night and day..(drool)

Peter
03-17-2005, 11:23 PM
I am not very good on the computer and I don`t know how to post. Having said that I am running a SE exhaust with some internal modifactions. It is very hard to tell the motor has been modified when at idle but when cranked on you sure as hell know.
The difference between a stock set up and mine is at a whole 'nother level. Perhaps one of the guys that rode it in Kissemini might want to comment. I`m probably a little preudice, let`s hear from a 3rd party. Chopin, it sounds as if you`ve got the right stuff done to your motor but to get the max out of it you have to be tuned perfect. The best I`ve ever seen is Fred Eno dba drdyno.com. Go on his web site, that`s my V-ROD pictured there. He can and will help anyone. Hope this info helps.

THE CORN MEANS I'AM WATCHING, MY 1320 HAS 145 H.P. 93LBS. DO I THINK
A 1430 SHOULD MAKE MORE? BETTER OR I WASTED MY MONEY ON A NEW

MY NEW CRANK IS BALANCED,POLISHED.STROKED.LOOKED MORE AT ELIMINATING THE ALT.RATHER THAN THE WATER PUMP TO REDUCE DRAG.

Well my bike is back together. Mechanic says he cannot use RT because he cant get enough fuel to the bike???? He changed it over to PCRIII and now with my set up I am getting 135/84. Hell NO!!. not for that kind of money. I think I will put the RT back and can Fred.

03-18-2005, 05:23 PM
Anyway My point: for 7K 135/84 aint gonna cut it. I dont believe that the RT is the problem...Mechanic suggested that I get bigger injectors etc... to get more fuel. The bike dies full throttle. Mechanic states there is only so much fuel you can safely get with the RT. WTF...I dont care... Can anyone help. I think for my setup 140/90 is not too much to ask.

Fred Eno aka drdyno phone number is 860-599-2396. He lives in Connecticut.

Paul Deiter`s number at Eagle HD is 765-448-9132. He`s in Indiana. They build a good motor and tune quite well.

Based on what you say is in your motor I would expect a little better results than what you are reporting. Good luck, hope this info helps.

Timing, What has he done with the timing? [ignition] There is pletty of fuel up to 200rwhp. I find it hard to beleave he would dump the R/T for lack of fuel, but he must have seen some strange numbers to do that. Your numbers are fair, not great, but OK. The D And D runs a very bad Baffle [IMHO] Great Pipe, Bad Baffle. You may have better luck taking the baffle out.
PS: I'm getting 156-158 RWHP and 107-108 FTlbs Torque with our 1430. Happy Dyno? Maybe, But the things just shread tires, shure are fun!

My baseline (after exhaust and stage 1 download) was 119/71. I would have expected about 20-25% increase with my mods dont you think (30% with an expert Vrod/RT tuner). I will let him tweak it a bit more. I think he can get 140/85 or so. He does not think he can get 90 TQ. ...Otherwise....well shit I dont know...

If your baseline on a stock motor was 119 ...I'd think that it was probably a happy dyno. and the baseline torque was bit bit low at 71. Most are somewhere around 110rwhp/75lbs torque stock. HD race tuners use maps...yes It's my understanding the pipes you use make all the difference in your torque and also when in the rpm range it shows up. But again I have been wrong before.

Here is first dyno run. No top. No filter. No stacks( I am not sure why he ran it this way). Overall pretty good except for low RPMs...too lean. I will put another 500mi on it and dyno it again. At low RPMs the lack of fuel is not particularly apparent to me when I ride it. At about 3K you really feel the engine kick in and then it just hauls a$$ after that. Torque still lagging behind. Any suggestions? :mrgr:

I agree. It looks like someone going into cardiac arrest!
I am just thankfull that the bike is back together and actually running pretty good despite all of the problems we have had, but I must agree that experience is what counts. Its slim pickings as far as Vrod tuners/builders down here...but If I had to do it again, I would send the whole freakin bike..crate and all..to one of the guys who have experience doing BBs. We are trying to fix the lean spot at 2-3k. We will se if any more HP/TQ is to be had. :thumb:

But you may have to be patient with the tuning<G> . {Pun intended Doc} Try not to confuse a lean spot with a lack of accelerator enrichment. If he is running without stack, toppless ect...You will always get that lean spot for a second or two.

Hey Jason. My last dyno was 140/84. BUT the rear wheel was a bouncing, I had no stacks, and I was running lean down low and rich up top. SO Getting mapped "tweaked". Will dyno with stacks and straps ON after a few more miles. Bike runs great though. Get your scanner yet??

If I ever decide to do mine, it'll go straight to tilly in NC (a few hours away), I wouldn't trust the techs in GV to change the plugs w/o damaging something else.

Worst GV's done so far is when I took my new PM wheel in for rebalancing it.
First thing the tech does is pry the wheel weights off with a metal screwdriver, then he slipped - yup, pry marks and a big scratch on my new wheel.
So I very nicely bring this to the owner's attention. He apologizes and I leave thinking all's good.

Next week I show up with a new tire to mount it. They say they are busy and to come back in a couple hours - which I do.
When I return they say:
"We can no longer mount customer's wheels because last week our machine damaged a $1000 wheel and we had to pay for it."
I about blew my top right there. It was MY wheel and they DID NOT pay for it. Their machine didn't hurt it, it was the moron tech with a screwdriver. Did they really have to waste another hour and a half of my time driving back and forth?

Every single time I've let them work on it, they return it filthy, greasy, fingerprints all over and without fail I have to come back 2-3 times to get it done right.

They won't touch my bike again.

GV HD has a very nice facility, but their service sux, their prices are high and their attitude is that we should be thankful they let us spend our money there. I'm not the only one who says so either. Just about everyone says the same thing.

Been to Tilleys, great shop, very helpful, and they know what they'r doing when it comes to BB.
I checked to get mine on their dyno and they said the bike has to stay about 1 week. I asked why and they said that is what it takes to get tuned in... my understanding is that they will put some road miles on the bike as well. I am about 3 hours away and did not want to leave the bike there that long so I took it to Roanoke, VA HD. Not real happy with the tune there, still have a pretty good flat spot around 4500rpms.
This all happened in the fall of last year. I do not know if the 1 week deal still stands, you may want to give them a call to see.

Thats what I know about Tilley's, I hope it was of some help. :2cents:

You won't be sorry if you do go there. It's the home of Don Tilley and Tripp Nobles the AHDRA Vrod class winner for the past 2 years and the class leader this year. (Gainesville)

Virtually ALL of the people there are TOP NOTCH!! and know their business regarding "V-Rods and Mods" including big bores and other performance issues. They have built at least 3 dozen Big Bores at this pooint and a number of the drag bike motors that are competing on the AHDRA race circuit today.

OF course Steve at V-Mod and Paul Diener at Eagle HD are also on the "Good Guys" short list as well.

You have NEVER BEEN ABLE TO COME UP with ANY numbers that others can use to match your SELF CLAIMED TITLE!!!

In ANY discussion that comes up, you either just broke the bike and can't show up or you change the "Ride" that made the results.

WHY didn't you show up at the Las Vegas shoot out and prove your point --because you were too busy???? You have been asked and challenged by several racers in this forum to show up for big bucks and do your thing.

YOU AND I BOTH know who offered you a match race for $20k and you turned them down.

As far as you being close friends with some of the more notible racers, my understanding from talking with them personally is that they don't consider you a friend AT ALL !!!

EVERYBODY WANTS TO SEE YOU RACE YOUR BIKE(S) AND WIN SOME RACES INSTEAD OF RUNNING YOUR MOUTH AND CRYING ALL THE TIME ABOUT HOW YOU HAVE BEEN ABUSED BY HARLEY, ONE OF THE HARD WORKING VENDORS THAT HAVE WORKED ON YOUR BIKES OR SOMEBODY ELSE.

My suggestion-- take some of the money you invested in a few of the bikes and GET SOME PROFESSIONAL THERAPY!! ANYBODY that has 8,446 responses on ANY forum ( and this isn't the only one you visit) REALLY NEEDS TO GET A LIFE!!!

It seems that most are doing the 1/4 in. stroke for the street...Why not the 1/2 in. stroke? For the street several factors. We had Paul Diener in chat a few weeks ago and dependability on the cranks was questioned. I know of no one that has any problems with the 1/4 stroke but talking to Paul in chat he said he had seen a few problems with the 1/2" stroke. Although I don't think it was many and it was with a stock crank stroked. I believe the full circle crank is dependable but that bumps the price up considerably. If your not a full time racer. The extra cost doesn't make sense to me. Others were in chat including Max when this was discussed. Donald

I know of no one that has any problems with the 1/4 stroke but talking to Paul in chat he said he had seen a few problems with the 1/2" stroke. Although I don't think it was many and it was with a stock crank stroked. I believe the full circle crank is dependable but that bumps the price up considerably. If your not a full time racer. The extra cost doesn't make sense to me. Others were in chat including Max when this was discussed. Donald
EITHER YOU MISS UNDERSTOOD OR PAUL IS GETTING TO OLD THE FAILURES
HE INCOUNTERED THAT I KNOW OF WHERE ON THE 1/4 STROKE STOCK CRANKS AS HE CALLED TO LET ME KNOW TO WATCH AND BEAWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THEY WHERE CRACKING ON THE END OF THE ROD JOURNELS. I HAVE RUN 3 WITHOUT A PROBLEM YET. BECAUSE I INTEND TO KEEP MINE FOR A LONG TIME I OPTED FOR THE FULL CIRCLE CRANK, I ALSO BELIEVE THAT THE DESIGN IS SUPERIOR TO THE PORK CHOP. :2cents:

Had biked tuned once more here. Tech spent hours on the thing and the results as far as rideability were well worth it. Bike runs much much better....found that the bike is not getting enough air however and this is likely the reason why I have been unable to breake the 140/ 90 mark. At 1 atm she runs .9 throughout the midrange and only in the top end (about 7.5k) will whe suck in air at 1 atm. I originally had the TB and Stacks bored out. These were placed on the stock TB rubber boots. Now there is a lip of rubber between the TB and Boots that I need bored out. I will do this soon...Question...Everyone with a BB and Bored out TB has bored out boots?? Does the Head side of the boot need boring out??How easy is it to do it?? Can I expect any significant improvements??

Nope we're running the stock belt and a modified clutch that is totally stock appearing and "stock" from a feel and operational standpoint as well. Jeff

I only had about 1000 miles between the first build and the second but it ran without a glitch. I sent it back in to get even faster. The biggest changes this time around are 17" rims & tires, new exhausts (2 different set ups) and soon the nitrous. The nitrous is all installed it has just not been tested yet. I have no street time on the second build because I don't have it back yet. The motor is a 1550. Jeff

Rick; Might I ask what quirks you speak of? I have over 4,000 miles on mine since I got it back and nothing I know of as far as quirks. Installing an electric shift and shift light July 1st at Cycle Connections. Might run into some quirks after that. Donald

Hey OK, just an FYI my electric shifter and shift light went in during my first build and it worked flawlessly. I have to admit I still frequently shifted with my foot but mostly because I felt too “lazy" just pushing the button unless I was running the bike hard. Jeff

Jeff; That's good to know. I think Rob and Mike Lewis feel the same way. Once it is setup, seems to work pretty well. I saw theirs last weekend and that is what made me decide to go that route. Donald

COOL JEFF,THE QUIRKS I SPOKE OF MAINLY HAVE TO DO WITH THE CAM PROFILE I'AM RUNNING COMBINED WITH BORED THROTLE BODYS THE CAM OVER LAP AND THE THROTLE POSITION SENSOR.DID'NT PAUL SAY SOMETHING ABOUT A EXTENDED SWING ARM THAT APPEARS STOCK?
AS FAR AS THE ELEC. SHIFTER I'AM SURE I WAS THE FIRST TO RUN ONE TWO YEARS AGO. I PREFER THE ELEC OVER AIR AND HAVE MY CHROME SWING ARM AS A AIR TANK AND AN MPS ON BOARD COMPRESSOR.FOR MUCH LESS MONEY THAN THE ELEC.UNIT AND MUCH QUICKER.TAKES 1/2 THE KILL TIME TO COMPLETE THE SHIFT.BE INTERESTING ON THE TRACK WITH NOS TO SEE IF THE BELT WILL HOLD IF AND WHEN IT HOOKS.
THE FIFTEEN FIFTY ENGINE SIZE EXPLAINS THE HIGH TORQ.NUMBER STROKE
IS A WONDERFULL THING.

Rick, we are still using a stock swing arm although I have heard Paul talk about the mysterious stock “appearing” extended swing arm (and you know I want one). The belt has been holding up fine so far and Paul does not anticipate a problem but as we will be breaking out the nitrous soon I guess we’re about to find out!!! Jeff

A SERIOUS question out of curiousity. What Happened to your AFR between 4,500k and 7,00k rpm's? It LOOKS like it was starved for air.

It's STILL a DAMNED GOOD run just curious.

The AFR actually drops somewhat...meaning it was richening up, not leaning out.....that's just some very fine tuning that can be done if the time was available...but I would think it's better running a little fat than too lean.....plus it probably would only smooth out the power delivery a bit but wouldn't net any more peak HP....

The race tuner is very complex with a big motor and they spent a lot of time tuning and said that D&D pipe with my combo gave them fits. When you ride it on the street you wouldn't even know that rich spot existed. I suppose if I was willing to have them spend another day and a half they might get it out but it really isn't worth it as the upper rpm range is perfect and cruising is perfect so I am completely satisfied with the performance and the driveability.
