    Going in for a pacemaker tomorrow morning at 6:00 am.
    Doc says it's a cake walk, It's supposed to self tune. I'll let you all know in a few days. :)

    Ahh man! That's a big deal. I sure wish you all the best and hope you get back on the ride asap! There's no better rehab than a good ride in the country.

    Good luck to you HarleysLR.

    If its a self tuner then where'd they stick the O2 sensor :D

    harleyslr, wish you all the best. They was thinking of putting one in me after my heart surgery and still may have to some day. They told me it was easy to have done so take care, do as they say and before ya know it you'll be stepping along and moving out pretty good. Think of it as a Harley Race Tuner, self adjusting. :)

    Good Luck slr and remind your doc it's better to run a little rich then lean and you want a nice potato,potato,potato sound at idle!

    Hey All,
    I 'm home. Things went well, They threw a quick re-tune on me before I left the hospital this morning. Had to smooth out the potato, potato it was causeing me some discomfort. Doc said back in the saddle next week after my check up. Thanks again for all the prayers and well wishing. :D

    Glad to hear that you are all better. It is a good thing that your mechanic knew how to install the tuner. Get back on the road soon.!
