Thanks Chriso, what rev range are the 259e cams at their best mate, hope your not using any extra oil like a few of the other guys that had trouble, is the engine getting better mate??

Rans

rans i would have to take a bit more notice of the taco mate on the next run, just been enjoying it to much but i can tell ya the bike is all mid range
which is obviously where ya want it.i would say if ya open her up anything from just under 3 to 4 and a half thou she takes off pretty quick but its not bad pretty much right through from bout 3.

Honestly this engine is purring like a kitten. Im no mechnic but Ya know when your got an engine under ya and ya just get that feeling that ya know  it is running sweet? well thats what its like.Using no oil so far mate.

Here's young Shingles Dyno Sheet. 117 ftlb and 117 hp it would do me no problem.

that what I think to. the thing make 100ftlb at 2300 and just gets better. No wonder these guys with the stage 4 kits are smiling

wow shingles you must be having a ball ENJOY

well many thanx to ozzymax as he was able to get my performance charts on here as i had no qlue i mean i tried an tried cant even get piks of bike on here its a nice bike ive changed lots of things ,it will never end probably cheaper to jus buy 1 wif all shit done but they dont pop up every day ,anyway im aproud owner 2008 fatbob an would recomend this model highly if u want a good handlein brakein an cornerin an general easy to ride with tons of performance even wen standard wif no mods . I hav modified my fatbob engine to a 103 stage iv and can highly recomend this change ,i gained 50plus hp and 38ft lb tourque an you dont hav to change anythin else jus bolts on you get all removed engine pieces bak mine were all packaged bak in boxes that new parts came in and put bak in plastic that was around new parts an boxes taped up as arrived then put in big box that parts came in so u dont have a big pile of all different shit all over da place jus 2 big boxes wif every thin inside now thats service .Every time you start dis bike up u now your gunna av fun an loose more rubber ,i start mine up then go an get ready as these need engines av 2 be warmed up longer than standard engine u jus cant start hop on an ride wont go properly an will cause internal problems so my dealer instructed me 10- 15 min warm up sounds wierd a but he is right i tried 2 ride 1 day didnt giv long enough warm up an jus wouldnt run properly coughin an splutterin an wen i turned throttle 2 demand more it wasnt happy so i giv it this warm up procedure an no prob ready 2 burn rubber instantly no coughs jus rip tear from time u leave home . The mods 2 engine r fantastic mine runs better now has been tuned an remapped power even more instant than before its hard to believe yor ridein harley wif dis sheer instant arm rippin high revin beast its like someone put supercharger or somthin on yor bike its not a harly that u would think youve ridin before yeah there ok standard was good an torky an pretty fast ,but now i av somethin thats a wheel spinnin goes like hell monster an i mean this is a amazin transformation of bike u see im used to ridein big jap sportbikes an yep there fukin monsters 2 but dont av the sound or asthetics of actaully being raw ground poudin v twin power an engine not all surrounded in plastic i wanted 2 see the bike as artistic piece as well even if i couldnt ever ride again jus put in loungeroom as conversation piece ,or jus hav a beer or 2 an jus look at the beauty of the design in metal of rollin art ,well i got better an now im on dat art creatin havoc again settin of car alarms an burnouts at lights an shit an genarlly havin good fun an gettin there fast an the sound this thing makes is amazing SHINGLES

shingles you are a funny guy. But I can see you enjoy this bike heaps and that is all the matters.

No problem to help out with posting up the dyno sheet mate.

It was originally a pdf file but they can't be posted on here so unless you know that or read the failure to load warning you are never gonna succeed. There is a limited number of file types to choose from that can be posted. Yours is now a jpeg, efectively just a photo.

Any way have fun on the bike. 10 minute warm ups has been stated by other lucky stg 4 owners but that just ain't gonna happen in my neighbourhood at 5.00am so I will just have to stick with the 103 almost stock.

Boys just a question, all you boys that have done the stage IV kit put in by the Stealer did any of them measure youre crankshaft runout?????

well i dont know about that detail but i will ask shop ,they probably say yep we did that an look at you strangely ,well they probably jus unbolted old an bolted on new is probably the truth me thinks an some av prob some dont is probably more closer to the truth but i av no probs yet an thats all i know about question Shingles

reason I ask is would be interested to know what it was before the increase in HP and TQ and what potential there is for more runout to develop?????

if it was my sled getting the upgrade I would want to know the runout.

when I went from 96ci to 106ci I had .003" runout and it didn't get any worse but I surley didn't want any more than that

well can't blame you for not reading the invoice. you were to busy wanting to get on the bike.
I doubt they would check for crank run out. doesn't that become an issue with gear drive cams mainly?
obviously you don't want them out of wack but they wouldn't check for it especially on a new bike i wouldn't think unless there were obvious issues

So this has been a big read. But for me it all means. Crap unless you've run it down the track and got a time slip. Throw as much money at the dealer as you like. But can you ride it?

And just how many miles in the life of a bike are done on the strip? FUCK ALL. And you would be throwing a real heap of dollars at it if that was your pleasure and it would potentially not be the most reliable or enjoyable street bike.
The enjoyment is in the riding every day and if you are lucky enough to have a heap on tap for a bit of added reliable fun good luck to you.
The way things are going there wont be any strips left for the casual rider any way.

The strip is not only what horse power you have it's all to do with reaction time and traction and gearing a good street bike is built for street not strip different Tyers gearing different situation we all ride to have fun some do it on a scooter some on a HD just now a HD melts tires as we krooz

fukin drag strip ive been there geez av 2 wait half a day or night 2 do a run not like u jus go round an round till u got betta at it an its only 1/4 mile or 1/8 i spinnin a good part of it an yor times slow cause u 2 busy spinin tyre if u like me ,my mates into it fuk no piss all diss other rules fuk im beond rules had wiskey in coke bottle fuk em , i found it 2 b such a drawn out affair i pissed of went 2 town more piss came bak an never missed my turn at strip there is a lot of competitors doin this drag stuff cars rails so much 2 put threw trak i found it 2 b a waste of time not 2 mention gettin dere first payin fees waitin 4 ever den av 2 leave go home early hours of morn cant say it was that great an experience 4 me anyway ,maybe usefull if u av full dragbike or somthin but as far as yor dail ride dont bother SHINGLES

Didn't mean to smack your bee hive. Don't get nasty at me. My bike rides better know worked than when it was new. Apart from pissing in the wind why go to the trouble and expense of big power to only do 110 on the highway. Stick to cams and pipe ecu and air cleaner. I enjoy racing and I pick the meetings that have Harley brackets to run in so I'm not wasting my day away. I ride it to and from the track. Best race bike I've ever had.

well i dont really do much  at 110 im a bit cheeky wen it comes 2 abidein dem limits an i av heaps of places to go to giv it a good run were no blu r nsw its remote but 1/2 hour b bak home some of road down & up range bit of crap but then u no good parts comein sweepers straights u can get movin , i dont even worry about blu stuff never hav jus b vigil an alert if u think somethin not right ahed button off an i variuos ways on way bak 3 options ,wen i go 4 ride i dont fuk around its as fast as i can go wen oppertunities arrise yes drag racein good but im impatient so thats jus me so i make my own dragstrip i dont work either so i can do durein week its dead were i go
