Just got everything installed and back together - at 1800 miles I found lots and lots of loose nuts in bolts around the bike - YIKES!

Torque loopz and Torque Master pipes Install didn't require as much swearing as when I installed on my F6B. I had to remove the left side hard case because the bracket wasn't lining up just right. Make sure you do a dry run before you start cutting - measure three times and cut ONCE. I used a little exhaust sealer for good measure.

I did the "adaptive" reset by: starting the Valkyrie with no throttle and running it till the fans cycled on AND off - then I shut it down; and let it cool off. I did a restart about an hour later and took it for a long highway adaptive ride. The sound is not too loud, no drone just sweet rumble. I can't say I felt any power gains - yet. Rode her like a new toy.

Cool! Do you think it's worth the money sound wise. I know that it's a modest HP (~3) increase, but I imagine that a re-flash should get you more.  Undecided

I like the sound - a little more authority without being obnoxious. None of the drone.
I will hold off on the guhl reflash until warranty runs out.  police

I am curious about the adaptive reset, are you sure that is the way to do it?

I repeated the procedure as I learned on the F6B forum - and it works at least as far as I can tell.

Also the cold hesitation seems to be gone.
