Not yet, but they will be coming right up. Due to excessive work load, I have not had the time to go through them yet but hope to get to it this week.

I want to THANK everyone that entered.
Sorry about being slow with the "winners". We ran into a couple problems. The email account with all the entries was lost a few months ago. I have been working hard at rebuilding the data specific to this thread. I did manage to finally recover all the email entries.
After careful review, post counting, circumstances and stories with the entries, I have picked 5 entries. I will say it was not easy. I would like to be able to offer it to everyone that entered but that simply is not possible.
Here is the list in no particular order...
hdxbones
merc1100sc
ccryan67
fj1200
trucky911
Please PM me to arrange a time for tuning.

The results are outstanding! Peak numbers didn't really change, but the bike is a lot stronger and smoother throughout the entire powerband. Throttle response is crisp and precise. Oil temp runs lower, and mpg went up-47 @ 70mph in sixth. No ping and no decel pop. Bean and Springer are a class act AND they know their sh!t, even though they're a few hundred miles away, my bikes won't see any other dyno's!

This is a neat thing Springer & Bean did... It's really nice to see a extremely happy response...
Springer & Bean deserve a slap on the back...

I've got to bring my buds bike out there for a tune.
He had a ring seal issue w/ the RP stuff. Once it's all back together it will go out there and i'll post results.
Def a generous service by Bean and Springer.. |

If you're extra good, you can monitor tire temps......
