Good deal Frank... Can we start a pool?
The person With the closest numbers gets a free brewski at the Petaluma WCR

I'll start....I predict 155-160 rwhp with 102-107 ft.lbs torque

Also..Make sure they note the final settings on your FCRs so you can share them with us... :good2:

As long as I'm clean...  Raul at FP told me his dyno will read 25Hp less than a Dynojet (they're always generous).  Based on what he knows of the bike, he thought 100Hp at the wheel.  I'm guessing at least 135 hp and 95 ftlbs at the wheel, but what do I know... :crazy:


I will bet we're going to teach him a lesson about Randy's engines! :rofl:

Wait a minute! I want a mulligan...I didn't know they were using a eddy current Dyno
Frank did you weld some O2 bungs on your header tubes so they can take individual Fuel/air readings on each cylinder?

...Fuel/air readings...?

FP says BAH on your AFR crap.  They tune for max measured power within a target range depending on the circuit your running on.  Marc (their guru) has a very logical argument why AFR tuning (which I've done many times and can be critical on turbos) makes no sense for real world motorcycles. 

I'm about to find out I guess...  they did want 10 gallons of gas, so they're running her a bunch...  (popcorn)

Frank - good news to hear you'll be getting on the FP dyno!  Will Marc be available to tweak the FCRs?  Good luck!  I'll take 142 on the FP dyno. What cams did you go with?  Stock or oversized valves?

1. Yes, although I think Raul just consults him while he's doing the heavy lifting.

2. Megacycle mild tune intake and exhaust.  Randy is an expert at dealing with Megacycle...

3. Big valves, head is ported and polished.

Not much of an update, but Raul has been tuning actively this week and has given me a few updates...  he's changed mains to get the top end right (smaller) and now is working on the mid-range.  Now we're waiting for new needles as the next step.  The only feedback he's given me is that there was lots left on the table and I will be delighted with the results.  He'll have the bike for all of next week since I'm heading out to Singapore and don't return until 2/25.  I'll post whatever dyno results he gives me after that.

Frank - I'll get you the complete post tune setup for reference.
