Tuners And Their Money

Well I was able to get my first experience inside the dyno room as my bike is being tuned. I (thought) I understood what it is that tuners do but to actually watch and observe what they do is really impressive. There are so so many variables that they have to know and understand it is remarkable.

Hot Riders bike is a just a calm Stage II but with her bike, the tune made the build. Watching Just Torque It having to go through the entire rpm range from off idle to red line and change almost every box percentage in 125 rpm increments was tedious and took a long time. Then, getting back on the bike, do another few pulls to see if those changes produced the best results. If not, go back and make more changes and do it all over again and again.

The moral of the story....... If you are getting your bike tuned, don't complain about the cost as the tuner is going through a lot of work to make yur bike run right!

I found that the dyno work worried me about the "abuse" the engine gets. "Abuse" is a negative word for the rpms that are incurred during the tuning process but I'm extremely protective of my older bike. However, the results were great!

Mine was never raced!

King Cuomo is f__king it up.

You see where Bloomberg is bailing out Florida felons so they will vote demo!!!

My old 1991 Springer has ran fine for the 26 years I have owned it . I know Harley's are not super fast from the factory, and once my bike was running fine ( I bought it as salvage after it was in a shop fire in 1995) I just left it . I have never reached top RPM, and don't go WOT. If my bike had 20 more horespower I'd never know it . I am happy cruising along at my speed .
Tuners , naw! not what I'd be interested in.

That's cool! You are in the minority of Harley riders then. Most Harley riders that I know or have ever met want their bike running top notch. I am in no way saying that your bike isn't running really well or anything. Hey, if it works for you, Ride On Brother!
