    Hey Somefun, I've seen this guy at a few bike shows, no one I know has used him or anything, but I've seen him do anything from flatheads to gixxers - Rob's Dyno Service.

    He's in Gardner MA, but travels around New England doing shows, not sure if that would work for ya or not.

    Good luck, bet she's running sweet now! (of course, it's a Honda so it's not like it wasn't before!)

    Hey Guy's I had the bike on the Dyno the other day...Went pretty well. Thought it would have put out a little more power thought. I had the power commander, Leo n Vince pipes, Motad catless header, air box mod and K&N filter.... Engine temp was 185 and the first pull was 98hp...after we adjusted the mapping a little (it was lean at 5000 and rich at red line) I picked up 3 more HP for a total of 101.2 I was glad to see it over 100 but I had thought I saw on the site that someone had 109hp? The dyno guy showed me and 06 VFR with just the commander and slip on's and I was 9hp over him though.

    Hey Somefun,

    Sounds about right, it's pretty hard to get much over 100-ish. I think you're in pretty good shape. Different days and different dynos might fluctuate the numbers a little too, but that's a pretty good number in my book. How's it sound with those headers on it? I'm jealous!!

    You need to take another trip on Rt 116 to try it out!

    Sounds REAL good!!! a little loud at high R's but not bad. I like it a lot. It does seem to pull a little better with the header and air box mod....But it could be the noise too....LOL but either way it's all good. :thumbsup:

    Nice! Yeah I'm all over another ride...I can't stay on this thing enough. I rode it to work today in the rain...lol O well! I'll talk to Chris on the date. I'm going sky diving on July 3rd for the first time and then a three day ride throught NH the following week (should be real good) looking forward to shutting of the phone and just riding. :biggrin:
