    Hi Hoody, thanks for the clarification. Difficult subject for us novices but I think I get it. Cheers

    Big valves in these 110's, the stock dual springs do ok, my cams are 590 lift and the engine stays sane at 6200, I wouldn't ride at that for long but if you don't get it there you can't tune it there, dyno or street.

    What state/city are you in? We can try and find you a good one. Go with the tuner they want to use.

    Eastern Big Twin in Pakenham are a sponsor, they tune with PowerVision, you would be looking at about $200 for the licence and about $600 for the tune, don't quote me on that but that's about the going rate, if you want to go a bit out of your way Lushy is in Victor Harbour, he does a top notch job.

    Finally got around to getting EBT to tune my stock CVO FatBob with SE slip ons & decided to go with the Power Vision Licence Key option 

    I picked it up today & quickly rode the 40ks back to work.

    I am loathe to say its a different bike but fuck me its a different bike !!

    Not making huge HP, but torque is really strong & runs waaayyy cooler

    Ended up max 91hp @5350 & 114 nm @ 3190

    Money very well spent , learnt a lot in a short time from Brian & what a true gentleman & knowledgeable bloke Brian is.

    Thanks for the recommendation

    Thanks for the info Taztiger.
    It’s good to know that just getting a decent tune can help cool these old 110’s.

    You are now converted aye, tuned they just run better everywhere, numbers aside what matters is how well they respond, smoother, crisper, it's just a better mousetrap.

    The numbers you got are pretty much the norm for the 110 with 255's tuned, just a bit of trivia I put Andrews 32's in my 110 and got the local shop to tune it, numbers were less than stellar with SE mufflers but initially I was pretty happy with it, then I started playing around with mufflers and exhaust configurations, it woke right up and became a different beast altogether, stock they will take more cam than maths alone would suggest, Herko and Dewy did a few different cams in these over in the states when they first started making the 110's, you don't ride a dyno sheet.
