Chucksters Dual Plate+TFI=WOW

I finished the installation of both a few days ago and went for a good ride today. It's like a different bike. While I have not dialed in for gas mileage yet, it's amazing how the Nomad just woke up and I am loving it! Passing and pulling onto the freeway is effortless and up to 80mph so much quicker.

Yep! No doubt about it, the stock air intake on these bikes sucks! Very restrictive! Letting the bike breath makes a noticeable difference.

Got any pics or more info ? links?

Here is a write-up I did a while ago on this mod. It has a few pictures to go along with it. I've done this mod to several bikes for friends and they have all been very satisfied with it. http://utahmotorcyclist.blogspot.com...ir-intake.html

Yes and that's the link I used. Excellent photos to guide you through and an excellent product from Chuckster. The Dobeck TFI install is also pretty easy and their phone techs are great.

I have a big ride tomorrow so I will be able to judge the gas mileage and do some more tuning.
