Hi Doug, I like my torque numbers at (54.1) and for a cruiser it's exactly what I'm after.

Of course I'd like to have more but that's for another day. I recently read an article though on the difference between hp and torque where it was mentioned:
Quote:

For everyday people, torque is more important than HP because riders usually stay below 5500RPM, that's why most motorcycle manufacturers (like Yamaha) tune their motorcycles to get more torque at low-rpm at the expense of some high-end power.



this is the article and it's not a bad read actually.

I've also read articles that say torque = "pull back" factor on the handlebars, and I also agree with sheldon ie

if you can tell a difference...odd's are good there is one..period




Well, that's how it's felt with my changes also.
