thinking about it

I guess the only way to be sure is to reinstall the Kuryakyn 57mm TB after I get it back from Kuryakyn and see if it goes haywire. If it does, that will be a "for sure" test.

The stock TB is working just fine and is just a pleasure to have on the bike even though I cannot break 114 hp with the stock TB which is not a problem since I have not had to buy a rear tire for 7 months, so far. So why re-install the stock TB? It is the only way to be sure that it is not capable of being tuned on my bike. Before I put on the stock TB, I installed the Kury and it was not stable: the IAC and TPS were possessed by who knows what demon. I ran out of incense trying to stablilize the tune with the Kury. So, reinstalling the new Kury (when I get it from Kury after sending my "blowup" 57mm Kury back to Kury), should clear things up.

If the new Kury works as well as the stock TB, then the original Kury must have had a broken butterfly shaft all along which screwed up the IAC and TPS no matter what I tried to do. We shall see.

I ordered the 1.8" intake port Kury 57mm since I am putting new heads on the engine this winter. And, I am updating the exhaust system and the cam. I guess I will know in a couple of months whether the Kury will work on my engine combo. And, as always, I will post the good or the bad.
