Dyno pulls I’ve done

I’m going to try and continue to post to this thread as I tune bikes at work. The goal of this is to show what numbers I’m getting out of what combinations here in Texas. Not saying I’m the be all, end all of tuners, just want to share with everyone. Most of the time, here lately, because of the extreme heat, I’ve been going in around 6am to tune. These are all done with a Dynojet chassis dyno and power vision maps / tuners. None of these graphs I post will be Screamin Eagle street tuners, Thundermax or TTS, unless noted. I try to put text in each pic so you know the combination used. They won’t only be Road Glides and some I don’t remember all the parts I use. If I say “Harley 131 kit” and don’t list anything specific, then it’s just as the kit comes. I will make it a point to highlight what parts I do change.

I hope everyone enjoys this and feel free to ask questions. I’ll do my best to answer / remember the bikes. Lol.

I don't know why you implied that this was meant to be shared elsewhere outside of this forum; suggesting such should have been asked prior from the person making the offer. Seeing as you are forum savvy to try to go and post elsewhere for whatever bravado, there really is no excuse.

You are here on this forum to escape the rift raft of other forums, you don't have a Road Glide, yet you immediately wandered over to the rift raft to share in the good grace of those good folks here trying to help other good people out. I would suggest you delete your posts and admit your error in judgement on the rift raft forum. Then say sorry.

Admin or not - it was wrong on many levels and I have no shame in saying such.

@grwil67 - you even point the rift raft straight here. Your other posts came afterwards, a day later, with time to think about it. IMO - not cool.

Sorry, Murph.

@grwil67 totally not cool taking advantage of a bros good graces…….

As previously requested, do the right thing and delete your posts on the other site…..

Fixed another one today. Customer came in with his 2019 RGS 114 for me to fix. He has a Rinehart air cleaner, full Rinehart exhaust, an S&S 465 and FP3.

Now, in my experience, the 465 is a great cam in a 107. In a 107, it’s what a 475 is in a 114. Doesn’t work well at all in a 114. So I changed the cam out to a 475 and tuned it with power vision. Only other change I made to the bike was switching mismatched spark plugs (NGK iridiums on the left and stock Harley plugs on the right) to all stock 6R10 plugs. No other changes.

One from today. Customer had his 131 heads and 64mm manifold ported by Ward’s Performance. Reinstalled those items with Feuling head breathers, S&S piston jets, and a Trask vented trans top. Picked up about 9 hp and 5 tq from where it was before all of that.

Another one from today. Put a 475 cam in a customer’s CVO RGU 117 with a Khromewerks headpipe. Customer would not let me change the CVO mufflers out.

One from today. Stock 117 with an Andrews 485, SE 64mm throttlebody and manifold, SE 5.5 injectors, extreme wedge air cleaner, Khromewerks headpipe and TAB mufflers. Pulls like a freight train

2015 FXDB 110”, Woods #6 cam, 54mm throttlebody, oversized air filter, 2-into-1, and ported heads with oversized valves.

This was a retune because the owner changed the exhaust. Came in making 124hp/120tq.
As you can see above, 5th gear pull like I normally do made 126hp/127tq.
6th gear pull netted 130hp/129tq

Another one from today. Stock everything except an Andrews 465, a KW headpipe that fits under OEM heat shields, Kw mufflers and added 1 louvered baffle to the right side. He had all of that stuff already except the for the baffle that I added which forced a retune. Made the same numbers but the torque and horsepower plots are a lot smoother.

From what I’ve seen, yes the stepped headers do help. I’ll be doing another cam and KW 2-into-2 tomorrow so I’ll be able to show before and after plots

I didn’t put this one together, one of the other techs did, I just tuned it.

2021 SGS 114, aluminum manifold, stock TB, 5.5inj, Andrews 485, ventilator AC, stock headpipe and SE Street Cannons.

Customer brought his 2018 SGS in. It has the Harley Stage 3 107 to 114 kit with the SE-498 cam and high flow air cleaner. Stock manifold, throttlebody and injectors.

Red is with the stock headpipe and TAB mufflers and Street tuner.
Blue is with a Thunderheader 2-into-1 and my PV tune.

The only thing I’ve done is a pull on a stock CVO, put an extreme wedge air cleaner on and make a pull and then put a Khromewerks 2-into-1 on and make a pull. I’ve only used the street tuners on the 24s because of the new brain architecture and no unlocked aftermarket tuners yet.

At was at the dealership today while Murph was tuning this beast……. Made a big difference after he swapped out the AC to the wedge…….. I was quite impressed with the service area @ Central Texas HD. They have 30 bays and everyone was being used, and had Id guess 100 bikes waiting for service. Everything from oil changes to full motor builds……. It was quite the sight to take in……
