Re-Tune & Dyno when you converted?

[DaveL]

My CSC kit will be installed this month - 2018 RG Ultra w/Stage 2 kit btw - I figure need to get retuned soon after I pick her up - and should do so at a shop with Dyno for trikes. You fellow HD conversion kit owners agree? Comments/experiences welcome! Thanks in advance.

If the bike ran good before I don’t see the need to address this unless it runs bad or you change components like cams. Run it like it is first.

Appreciate the thoughts. My reasoning is CSC kit comes with new pipes and I have the Stage 2 cam/Pro Tune kit on bike - I think tune can be better set up for a trike. With added weight and drag of 2 wheels and new belt system seems more torque set up would be beneficial - that is where I think a dyno will help.

Dynometers are for R&D and race motors. You don't have a race motor. But it's your property so go ahead and let some clown with a laptop beat the crap out of your engine in order to gain a few more horsepower and foot pounds of torque.

I would have it retuned. As far as running it on a dyno, it's no different than it being run down the road with the right dyno operator and those are few a far in between.
