82 c.i. - 128hp
Well after almost a year of when I first built the motor I took it to the dyno with the intention of getting good power out of the motor. I have sat on tuning the motor for more power for quite awhile while I was making passes on the chassis and making sure everything was good there first.
Last night we were tuning the carb only, I have not touched the timing since I first set it last year. I will mess with the timing on the dyno prior to going to Bonneville this year. The 82 c.i. 1350cc 98' Buell motor I built made 128 hp and 101 ft tq!! I was really excited that the A/F is set-up correctly now and the bike made the power it did. We were going to make one more pass and felt it was going to make 1-2 horse more, but I broke my dam cast POS shifter shaft that slides onto the pawl. At any rate I think the bike will see a 130+ dyno pass in the future with some more fine tuning of the carb and playing with the timing.
A big thanks goes out to Dan from NRHS for all of his help, all of the time! Thanks Dan!
I also wanted to thank Aaron Wilson as well as he has offered quite a bit of very valuable info to keep me going in the right direction. Thanks Aaron!
