122hp?

What kind of dyno? Jesus! 122hp stock with just the pipes and filter :eek: . If it is reproducible on another dyno I'm getting Force pipes STAT even if I don't dig the look of the shorties they'll grow on me, I'll use earplugs. I didn't wanna bother everybody since they say so very loud but at that kind of power how can I refuse?

Here's a graph of what Steve got out of them but I don't know if a PCIIIr or RT was used.

This is interesting! I may be getting some Force pipes.

Everyone is saying congrats because they can't believe it. THAT you can believe. It doesn't mean it's not true. I'm having a hard time with these numbers too and I don't think you are a liar. It's as you say, you are getting the info out as you get it. You have to admit that given what everyone else here knows about V-Rods those are high numbers for a stock setup. For example, it's been known that ST make some of the highest numbers, Kaz had them ST's and after "hundreds" of runs and more stuff in it than yours he made 120's. So! Keep an open mind as we all should also. If you get to the point where you find out it was an error , please tell also, there's nothing wrong with that. And listen, this is just so we all learn. If true and not a dyno error get it to the track and run it just to shut everyone up. Get it to another dyno after tuned and compare hp #'s. Let us know. T-Bag go get yours to a dyno ASAP, let us know.

I see OKIE has high hp # with a jagged curve meaning possibly knock sensor acting on it and this motorcycle with just af and exhaust should not need more gas making such high hp #'s. Am I right? I'd like to see the RT file not just for the AFR's even if I really know shit about tuning.

Are you the first owner? Can you smoke the rear with just throttle application in first or second gear at 5-7k rpm coming from a steady pace then whacking it open? You finally tuning with Skin guy or Shreveport? I hope it's true cause I'm getting Force pipes at once just to try. I lived in Shreveport for some time and hope it and Bossier are still growing.

If it turns out that you are getting such good numbers reliably maybe we'll need an autopsy.

You have a RT. Datalog with it and it should tell you if and when knock sensors activate, then you compare with the hp graph you have. If you tune'em out you'll end up with higher hp or at least with a smoother graph making it pull harder most of the time, thus a faster, better riding, not to mention a more efficient and reliable motorcycle.

Very good point!

OKIE said:
I know, its higher than normal #s. I think its the one TWENTY mark thats freaking eveyone out. Yet 117 is perfectly acceptable.
True! Get it checked, I bet you'll be happy with the results anyway. Hope it's better than 120.
