    went for a ride the other night on the evo seems a bit better on throttle response , haven't check the MPG yet , we ran into a guy from east TX on a 96 Evo sounded good said he shaved the heads 50 & a ev 27 cam all the rest was stock, dam it ran good His buddy had a 09 dyna 96 in & said they ran the hwy at 75-80 MPH all day In the heat & the EVo had no trouble staying up with his 96in
    PS my son gave me some ship about not working on the E glide before I go , so I informed him when I get back he's helping on it & his kids are staying at home , A 2 year old & 4 year old love then but not while trying to work on my bike ,
