What's going on Sparty me old bean 
I had the bike out this evening for a 20 mile ride. I set the Dyna 2000 on the #4 setting and I notice a bit more power. I stopped to top off the tank with Shell V-Power fuel and when I tried to start the bike again it gave me fits. I couldn't turn the engine over with the kick start at all. I let it sit for two minutes and tried again. It finally came to life with the starter button after a few tries. I am not sure if it was flooded or not. I took it to 8000 once today. It sounded so good revving up there. It is hard to resist going higher. I need to get the carbs sorted. When I get on the throttle past 5000, the bike really pulls strong. I went over to Bike Night and had more than a few guys looking it over. When I started it, they began to grin. It sounds fabulous with the Kerker 2 inch comp baffle. The engine is becoming more and more quiet as it breaks in. The cam chain noise is very low now at idle.
Once the bike is good and hot (the engine heats up much faster than the stock one did), the idle comes up a bit higher than I would like, I am guessing it is a carb adjustment issue. I wish the CRs had a tuning guide. The Fast by Gast tranny is super positive and it shifts beautifully.
I was in second gear at 5000 and opened the throttle and my front wheel came up as I climbed to 8000. I watched my speedo climb in a split second 20 mph. This bike is fast for a heavy bike with a full tank. It will hit a ton quickly; however I only had it to 80 so far. When I am in third gear and open the throttle I need to hold on because it spins up quickly. The 17 tooth front sprocket gets the power to the rear wheel much better than the stock 18. I am in love with how the K&N pods suck air, they have a great whistle as the engine spools up.
I need Mike to come down and tune this sucker for me. I have a very strong feeling that I am down a few HP at the moment. I can tell that it has more to give.
