Harley Davidson 2024 CVO - Stock vs. Exhaust Upgrade
What about pumping up the throttlebody manifold. Yes there’s probably zero tune for that but… Someday. that CVO is a VVT? That’ll make a difference in future 117s
Just wondering if you hooked up the wideband Harley Davison autotune do you think the numbers would be any better? Knowing JD he’d probably figure out how to squeeze the Max out of it. I think you should give it a shot, lot of people would be curious. Most Dyno fanatics would realize it’s still an EPA configuration, but it’s got to be better than what you have currently presented us. Thanks for sharing the video !
Hi Dave🤗 interesting video😳 One thing I do no…The work you’ve done to my bike put a smile on my face thanks, Dave👍🏻🇺🇸
The extreme air filter is getting a great reputation for flowing big air.
My 114 with the zippers 468 cam chrome works exhaust S&S 55 mm intake that you tuned Dave is in line with the 121 I couldn’t be happier runs like a Ferrari more than enough power for me an old man went on a 400 mile ride last weekend average 50 miles a gallon Dave you are the best
My 117 low rider s with zippers 468, stock air cleaner, cobra slip ons was just dyno'd here in florida and we had similar problems with heat/ humidity. I basically came out with 105hp and 131tq.. I was thinking at least 5 more on each number. thanks for posting this.. makes me feel better!
Is yours a 2024? The new 117s have different heads than 2023 and below.
@@gnd111 No, its a 2022... I didn't realize they changed the heads in the softail 117's
Good info.
Why the drop off at 4800 rpm? Is it because of the speed limiter?
Yes on a stocker
auto tune it ,will correct it self, I upload thug one tune on mine than I run it few times in a auto tune and now the bike runs very good, plugs looks great to.
Autotune is a joke...proven daily on dynos
I think you’re right autotune may be a joke, but I think in this case it probably run better with the autotune then without it be interesting to see how the wide band would work and clear up some of that messy graph. Moonshine did one with the 511 Cam in 2024 RG produced some good numbers on a Dyno you would think the two into one D&D would perform better numbers 😮
Great vid
Interesting stuff Dave, makes me happy to see the upgrades you did for me on my 18SGCVO, kicks those numbers butt😂
I was thinking the same thing.
Interesting stuff
Another valuable video. Dave, what’s the cost of the Wilbers vs. Legends?
Hello Dave I have a question, have you done a dyno run on a 103 with the max-cell T905A cam and if so what were the numbers, also I have a 103 with a ThunderMax tune and it stops at around 105 or 110 mph is there a way to get that speed higher, it’s on a 2012 ultra limited, thanks for any information and advice
One of the best videos out there. Thanks for your hard work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the review, I have legends and been considering the wilburs 👍🏼
Glad I could help
There are only a few shops I have seen that explain baffles like this. To bad none of those shops are no where near where I live in northern Virginia. I really want to get my sportster a professional dyno tune and not a "professional" dyno tune.
We've worked with others all over the US, if you're interested, give us a call.
Tell ya the truth guys I had a 2009 FLTR I put Dirty Air suspension on the rear. I had a 2022 FLTR Special I put the full Wilbers set on , front and rear. I’ll stick to Dirty Air and only the rear suspension… LOVED IT
So you did go with the CR/APE 483! Great choice. The best cam on the market for sure now.
Thank for sharing Dave ! I recently got a 23 SGS and the suspension sucks compared to my old heritage. I'm gonna look into wilbers
Love it
Excellent video Dave thanks for your time. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Dave how do you think this cam would work with bassani rr 3 2into 1 exhaust with the screamin eagle extreme air flow intake, everything else is stock?
Is it better than ohlins?
The Ohlins is designed for heavy performance use, the Wilbers is more of a plush ride set it kind of suspension in my opinion.
@@JDsCycleWorks gotcha. Thank you for your feedback
Awesome Wilbers is a good choice!!
I always enjoy your video's. Well Done.
Great product review and nice install! You might wanna recheck the sag adjustment, according to your weight (rough guess), the preload is on the little side. Rear wheel needs to be off the ground (maybe not shown in the vid) for the base measurement and then with you on the bike (not your wife), it needs to sag 20mm. No bouncing around, as this will already activate the auto leveling and falsify the measurement. Enjoy the Wilbers, you will love it.
Listen to Stefan… I’ve had my Wilber’s for a year now, used his video to install mine… road tested to Sturges 2023 from L.A. and to Loreto, Baja. Love them! @stefansgarage3014 good to hear from you... your friend - Toro 😉
@@jerrydelatorre5977 Hey Toro, maybe it was your bike that we saw at Sturgis. Wilbers stickers on the fork, I was just too slow to recognize it.
@@stefansgarage3014 in the video Dave reported that the front was 7/8” lower than stock. Is that normal?
@@Mike_Oliver55 Sorry, I thought I answered that already, but it didn't make it. The Wilbers sags a bit more than Harley stock. It uses that sag to "fill" a hole in the surface by extending the front end into it. With the almost no sag stock suspension, the whole front end dives into the dip and needs to be captured and dampened. Does that make sense, it's hard to explain in English, without using my hands...
Thanks for the advice, I will double check our adjustments, but so far very pleased with the Wilbers on Goldie!
Another great video Dave. I put a full Wilbers suspension on my 21 Road Glide Special in fall of 2021. Love it. Best suspension I have had on a Harley and I have had the "other " name brands as well. I also love that fork tube holder. I use an old lower triple tree for a holder. One side for 49mm and one modified for 41mm.
I have legends rear I want to upgrade my fronts to
Thanks for the video. Cute dogs also.
Editor here: got to have the dogs in the video if and when possible
What a great team. Jay, Dave and the doggies. Thanks for the great info. I need a suspension upgrade on my Road King. Thanks.
What did Wilber’s say about the 7/8” front ride height loss?
Hi Mike, I answered that question within my comment above
H-D’s and man’s best friend, couldn’t ask for better RUclips content! Is that an 03’ heritage in the background at the end?
Awesome, thanks for the info . I love ur videos !
Thanks for watching!
Great video, I considering the Wilberts now
Are wilburs better than legends do you think
Flyandride15 has given the answer to that question, he used to have the "L" brand. Good suspension, but the "W" is significantly better in the rear and auto leveling.
Great video Dave on that suspension. I’ve heard about like you said, but glad you got to test it and confirm it for yourself because even though it’s pretty expensive, I heard definitely worth the money when you hit the bumps and divots while riding.. nothing worse when you’re back gets jolted on a big bump
So far, absolutely loving it on GoldenRod!
Great content as usual, great video, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
We like to just avoid any increase in lever pull by using the Barnett extra plate kit instead of using springs.
Thanks, that is great information.
Do u know what the spec is for a AIM SDR? I had to set it at barely a 1/2 turn (if I do like 3/4 turn I’ll get stuck in gear at anything over like 4500 rpm) and minimum acceptable free play at WOT (gotta leave it tad looser at idle bc as that shit spins up the little fingers go in and snug up the lever .. of set “properly” at idle .. that clutch cable is TIGHT at 5k rpm
piston oilers?
After putting the new clutch cable on, I noticed that your handlebars were turned to the left. When on the Test before your handlebars were straight. I think that will make a difference on your test.
I have a 23 CVO 121CCV roadglide and The muller/Advanblack/Prizoma ramp will give a clear .080+ clearance with about 14.5# pull. Shifts like better... Be aware you have to exactly 1/8 turn clearance on the clutch adjusting screw.. Not the 1/2 to 1 turn HD adjustment with stock springs
Should have used a small kitchen scale to push on the lever until it contacted the bars.
Very informative ty
Man David that is some good info right there. Thanks for making this video.
Looking at the graph from 2k - 3.5k, you will feel that torque difference.
absolutely!
a picture is worth a thousand words. . So my fatboy 107 with screamin eagle 2 - 2 has probably the best low end tq setup ?
