    Ok, I have received my dyno program and this one is a little more complex than the one that I had before and I need a little help with describing two features on a motorcycle that I just have not given any thought to.

    Ok. How would one describe the intake manifold of a carbed bike? Would you say that there is a plenum? Long or short tube? Single tube or double?

    This is a two part question.

    1.) What would you consider the shape of a combustion chamber be on a Sportster? Wedge, D, or Hemispherical? Year of bike= 1996

    2.) Same as question 1 but for a stock set of heads on a 2001 Road Glide??

    Thanks.
