Had my 07 Bob dyno'd the other day during a 8000k service just to see what the figures were, I have Vance and Hines BSS's, SEII air and Fuelpak and the figures I got were 70HP and 80ftlbs, was a little disappointed with the figures as after research found stock figures were 68HP and 83ftlbs of torque until someone pointed out the HD figures are taken at the crank weras mine were figures at the rear wheel so I should be happy.
Anyway was looking at another forum and some guy in the US had his 07 Bob dyno'd with Vance and Hines SSS's, Big Sucker air and PCIII, his figures were 74HP and 91ftlbs of torque!!!. Man I didnt think there would be that much differnce between the 2 set-ups. Would the PCIII get him that much more torque or do the yanks have high reading dyno gauges.
Hi Shfunky... those figures seem down a little. I have Short Shot Staggards with PCIII as has Kane, with only real difference is his bike being 08. I got 81hp....
The thread is HERE
Kane emailed me his map with 84hp but with a much steeper curve so i get more power at lower revs....
Are your readings after having the bike mapped. Prior to mapping the PCIII, I had 74hp as measure at Frasers in Perth.
Gday Uncle Ho, can't map as I have a Fuelpak with settings given by V&H for optimum for my setup.
Gents,
As uncle ho mentioned, my 08 BOB had a fairly good improvement with V&H Shorts, a PCIII ignition and high flow air cleaner allthough since having it dyno'd it does run a little rough every now and then, usualy after a long ride it will occasionly stall when idleing and let out the odd back fire. (havent had a chance to discuss with Patto as yet).
You don't get much better that Patto's in Bunbury as far as dynos in WA.....
Scotty.... be carefull at what you refer to as stock.... once you change pipes, breather, fuel control etc it is no longer stock.
Here is my dyno readout... before I got the PCIII tuned the hp was 74
Thanks for the info guys, food for thought, some of those figures are pretty good for stock engines, from reading the US forum most seem to only get past 100ftlbs with the 103" bigbore. Think I might give the Fuelpak the flick soon and maybe go with a Tmax, might improve the figures and rideability, haven't been real happy with the Fuelpak since fitting it, even though other riders that have taken mine for a spin usually comment that they wish there bikes went as good as mine ....go figure. Thanks again to all who posted.
