Yes... I got it from Don Saturday. You've got mail and for the rest, let me just say WOW!
I have always found this bike to be very quick and yes also fast, but it was also clearly a bit more sedate in the way the power was delivered than I knew this big old motor was capable of. As Fred mentioned in an earlier post, this morning during my 125 mile morning ride, I struggled though out the morning to stay even 10 miles over the speed limit. The power is delivered in a very linear fashion and the secondary flies clearly are opening fully somewhere just north of 3500K. The increased power is substantial in all gears, but for me it's most noticable in 3--6th. Sixth gear is the new fifth and 3-4-5 are something just short of warp speed with a serious throttle twist. I mean this bike is just very very fast now and it does require a bit of restraint to keep it from turning into a full fledged sport bike, which is honestly what it is outside of the more comfortable ergo's. The bike revs more quickly and smoothly than before and I found myself shifting quite a lot higher in the rev band on a regular basis all morning due to the smoothness.
I think the Vance and Hines CS1 and Guhl Re-Flash are a great combo. The pipe was emitting some very racy gear runs with nice crisp snap offs during transition today. Also, had some decel pop prior to the flash with just the slip on. It's gone with the new fuel Map.
Throttle response is also very crsip. The bike simply wants to hunker down and move. Needless to say I'm very happy.
Fred-Thanks tons for taking the time to assist with the CS1 Map. I'm eager to get your feedback on the insert. I may want to get one of those if you determine there isn't a ton of adustments required to the Map. I did not notice the VH Can was a tad louder today with this Map, or it could have just been those 8K runs through the gears
Also want to add that Don Guhl is a class act and did a great work to get this done. When I sent him the ECU he didn't realize I was sending him a 2011 and there are some code changes. Luckily he had already started working on an 11 but hadn't finished it. He stayed up till 2am working on mine when it came in Wednesday. Then they got massive floods through their area but he still managed to get it all done and sent back to me for the weekend.
I highly reccomend this service.
