Well, finally took the 1350 up to the dyno this weekend to figure out what gains I'd gotten over last winter..ya ya I know it's damn near this winter but was just having to much fun with it during the summer to take it up to them. Well everything went okay on the ride up, after they got done with warm ups they guys came to give me the results. 132hp an 90lbs not bad but not what I was expecting but then they tell me the bike is idling weird and that I should replace my twin tech with the Race tuner. :banghead:
I gladly declined but wondered with what they mean that the bike was idling weird. On the way home the first stop like the bike wouldn't come down from 2k thought that was weird, second stop light the bike wouldn't come down from 3.3k....hmm, 4th stop light same as the third and I made it home. To really pissed at the dealer to think straight I just put the bike away. Well today I go out to figure out whats wrong since it hit 70 here today, and wanted to go for a ride. I pull the air filter off and start checking stuff and I notice the the back half of the rear cylinder butterfly shaft is missing. :barf:
My heart sinks thinking that it went in the engine, so I tear off the airbox pull the TB's and sure as shit it's gone. Split right at the screw, thinking all crap I break out the flash light and look down the intake, both valves are open and I can't see any damage, so I stuff some towels down it and look around in the valley of the engine and fine the missing half. Oh thank you god! :notworth: :dance:
Here are some pics of the shaft and the dyno sheet.
