  1. ^ That's more along the lines of what I'm looking for. Good info, thank you. I'll have to dive into this a little further. IP, while its going to suck paying for tests and whatever else, is probably my best bet so they can go over all of what you mentioned.
  2. Jason is right. I'm not concerned with getting more power...I've had this thing for 4 years and it still scares the crap out of me at times when I crack the throttle. I'm concerned that something is wrong and at almost 11k miles, I shouldn't be having motor issues. These come stock with 180 hp to the crank....and the dyno sheet Bubba posted is correct. I've seen these dyno anywhere from 152-157 hp to the wheel. So for this being almost 20 hp off, something isn't right and I noticed it last year when I went to the track and the top end felt very sluggish. More than anything, I wanted to put a feeler out to see if there might be an issue I wasn't aware of. Maintenance will happen, that's a given, but changing fuel and spark plugs isn't going to remedy 20 hp.
  3. Which I definitely need to change...I have the originals in there. Probably will top off with Shell gas next time. But, I figured that might make room for 1-3 hp....not 20. Might just have to take it to the Pony. They suggested a compression and leak down test.
  4. That's who I had tune it yesterday. Great guy and was very helpful....but had no idea "why the bike wouldn't make power" in his words.
  5. Hey guys. Question here...I've got a 2007 R1 with a GYTR high flow air filter, Leo Vince slip-ons with a Y pipe that eliminates the cat. PC V. Just had her dyno tuned yesterday and it's way low...137 horse to the wheel. That's about 20 hp lower than others I've seen dynoed with the same or fewer mods. She's got about 11k miles and I've never had any issues at all. Seems to run just fine. Any idea why in the world this might be happening? I've searched around and can't find any issues or recalls anyone had with this year and motor. Anybody out there might know of anything? And yes, I realize it could probably be a number of issues without cracking the motor open but I'm far from being a mechanic and wouldn't have any idea what I'm doing...so I thought I'd ask if anyone might know a thing or two about these motors. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated!
  6. Definitely wanting to make this too. I can never go on the Spring Epic Rides because they always land on the weekend of Rock on the Range for me. End of Sept should be perfect.
  7. Nope, still nothing. I'm in the right place for the thumbnails, right?
  8. The only way I can upload pictures is if I put them in the gallery first, and then post them up in the reply through "My Media." But, as you can see now, no check boxes.
  9. Negative, sir. I has no check boxes. Here's another odd thing: I can copy and paste a screenshot in this reply, and as soon as I hit "Save Changes" since I am editing this reply, the screenshot completely goes away. If I try to attach it as a file, it says it's too large because it's 98k and it only accepts 11k files. Seriously...getting very irritated here.
  10. Okay, I must be half we todd did. I absolutely can't figure out how to delete photos from albums. I don't have the "check box" in the corner of the thumbnail to do anything with the pic. I've tried clicking on "options" within the album and "edit" and don't see anything about a delete picture/photo option. What am I missing?
