Boz is back in the technical chair and he’s got his hands on a Milwaukee Eight – a Sport Glide to be precise – and in the first in a series of articles he is playing with exhausts and air cleaners and the Direct Link software on his Dyno.
One reader – a former proof reader and general clever bugger (take a bow, Jean Gazet) – was quick to point out that I’d put the same graph in twice and we hadn’t noticed it, and thanks to the miracle of digital technology I can now put that right.

Next issue will be cams, and the issue after that will be the 117-inch big bore kits that V-Twin has put together. You have been told.

- 5: S&S Stealth with the stock exhaust, tuned. This is relatively cheap power, around 6% through the lower and mid range, with a 10hp peak gain.

- 6: I was a little surprised by this as it doesn’t perform as well as the much cheaper S&S. But as I said earlier in the article, we must assume nothing. This illustrates that point very well as we move on from the Twin Cam and deal with the Milwaukee Eight.
If you haven’t got a copy yet, it’s still on the newsagents shelves.
