    Makes for a pretty quick Sporty and still reliable.... Got any pics of the shovel??:D

    JB, Be careful zipping around when it's cold(mid 30's- low 40's) your tires take a lot longer to heat up and the pavement is cold....your traction isn't as good as in summer:cool:
    Glad you're liking the sport in your Sportie tho:D

    Hey DW, Right On Brother!!! :D

    Lucifer, I am well aware of that.. :D My normal cruising speed was only 55-60 instead of 65-70, felt the difference right away.

    Hey Captn. It looks like that I didn't post the actual numbers that I thought I did. You asked how the butt dyno feels, well, it is a lot better once I got it rejetted. I am not overly impressed with the cams that I have in, but they do make good power in the top end, which is where I like to ride the most with that bike. I could get some head work done, but I think that I am just going to leave it alone as this bike is now for the wife. I still ride it, but I like my bagger!!:D:cool:

    If you learn to ride a bagger and cruise around and relax you really start to enjoy riding a lot.
    Baggers are for cruizin around and styling and riding in comfort man.:rant:
