Hello,
I have a '05 Big Dog Ridgeback (117ci & Super G carb). Years ago I added a K&N air filter and had no problems. Recently I swapped the factory pipe with a Paul Yaffe Drag Pipe. Now I have a flat spot at 3,000rpm and up. It just appears to level off and I produce no real hp or thrust. The low end gained a little though. Im still using the factory jet, a 31 I believe. What size jet do you recommend i go to? Or is that not the problem?
Also, when I decel at 2,100rpm, I get an odd chatter feeling through the whole bike as if Im rolling over the rutnuts in the emergency lane on the interstate. Could this be related to the air/fuel mix being off a bit? This is the first time Ive felt this on a v-twin.
Please advise what to do or where to go to find the fix.
Thank you.
