Yes that is a dyno run at the rear wheel. The things stock with Force pipes and high flow filter and race tuner. It had a drag bike map dumped in it that made it awsome at 7 to 10 grand but putting around it ran like duke. Skin has to start from scratch because shreveport harley would not give him the drag map.
10K redline?????? Let's see the graphs because I don't buy those numbers with just Force Pipes. Sorry, but no one else is seeing numbers this high and there's some pretty good tuners out there.

BTW Kevin, take that 102 hp Factory Pro number and multiply it by 1.15, that's what a DynoJet 200/250 will read. (I checked it and it's withing 0.1hp) = 117.3 hp. Very nice, best I saw was 101hp on the Factory Pro.

I have no reason to lie. As soon as I get the sheets they will be posted. I'm just sharing the info I'm getting. Is my tuner lieing? I don't see why he would.
The rev limiter was set at over 11 grand on the first map.

Hold On, I guess I didn't say what I was thinking.....

I'm not saying anyone's lying just that there has to be more to this story than has been presented so far since no one else in the whole v-rod community has seen these kind of numbers with any pipe combo on a regular basis, certainly not with any 2 into 2 pipe.

It's probably something as simple as dyno calibration or SAE correction factors being out of spec.

Again, I'm not calling anyone a lier, just looking for more information. Who knows, you may have found the perfect combination of parts and tuner.

I did lie. I just got off the phone with Skin. It was 121 and he's faxing the sheet within the hour. It will probably take me about that to scan it and post it (hope not).
He was said he thought his machine may have been off after this run but it checked out fine.
Maybe I'm just lucky . :460:

I'm just dying to see this dyno sheet. Power @ 10K? Not with stock cams, no way. The V-Rod starts losing HP after about 8500 rpm.

That 7 to 10 k was just me trying to describe how the bike ran. Not dyno numbers.

This is the shreveport map run. Skin said it was so lean at 4k it should have burned a hole in the piston.

Thanks Max, Should have looked but I was busy trying to figure out a way.

Yep, you're lucky you don't have a hole in the piston. Based on the power it looks like the system was really backing down the timing too. The numbers look strong, I would be real interested to see the map's fuel and timing variables. I'd also be real interested to see another bike with a chart from another dyno make a pass on this dyno because the numbers don't jive with any dynos here in FL.

OKIE,
Please ask your tuner what the numbers on the other V-Rods he's dynoed. As Mark says, the numbers are out of line with everything else out there. I would also be curious to know when the dyno was last calibrated.

I need to find a dyno somewhere! I wonder what kinda numbers I`d have. If I was pulling numbers like that with my Force shorties and PC3r I`ll start wearing earplugs! :diablo: :sinister:

Man, I hope I can get numbers like that! I'm going to try and take my bike down this week to get a baseline dyno with it stock, and then get it tuned the following week with the Force pipes and the filter. I'll post soon as I have the dyno print outs.

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.
