My CHRISTmas present to me

I finally got my ECU sent off to Ivan for the flash! Got my ultimate baffles installed and am getting a BAK from Chuckster. Can't wait to see how she runs!

Guess you’ve been good all year. You’re treating yourself right.

Don’t know about the BAK but the ECU will impress you.

I agree with Framer, suggest you install the ECU, test drive and then install the BAK if you think you really need it.

I should get it back by Monday then I will be riding. So you guys don't think the Nomad needs more air? It seems to be starving to me.

If regularly go over 4000 RPMs then you might want a BAK. If you don’t just add pipes and you’ll get a little torque and it will help with heat too.

I like max power in all ranges. The carbed Roadstar I had pulled hard from 1st through 5th gears and I kind of got used to it. I know the 1700 Nomad is an even better engine so I want to get the most out of it.
