I spend a ton of time in Pell City, AL which is only a 10 min drive from Bobby’s shop. He’s a wealth of knowledge. I’ve been in there a few times. I mostly pass it on the way to this killer BBQ spot just down the road…. But he did send me home with a free t shirt on one occasion lol

That's rad! I'm going to get the bike out tomorrow and let her eat! Should be satisfying.

​​​​@Dynawobble are you still running your stock 103" pistons and jugs? Any plans to hit the dyno?

Yes. Stock pistons and jugs. I'm definitely going to do a dyno tune. The map I got from Fuel Moto has it starving for fuel at take off. I get some hiccups when I hit the throttle. It's rideable but I'm definitely getting a tune. I just scored an HPI exhaust last night from Instagram so I'm gonna wait until I have that installed.

Here's a good video on removing the bezel. The key is just taking your time. It'll feel like you've went around the gauge 500 times once it comes loose lol

Looks like it's finally at my local PO this morning after taking a tour of the upper Midwest. Pretty funny it went from De Graff to Columbus and stayed for a few days, then back to De Graff it went, only to come back to Columbus later that afternoon. Can't wait to get my hands on it!

I'm interested to see how my 103" with the CR-570II and Thunderheader compares. I am currently at 103ftlbs and 81hp. I've pretty much convinced myself that next winter, '24, I'm going to do a FuelMoto 110".

That's USPS for ya. I sent parts to a guy in NC once and somehow the box ended up in the middle of Louisiana before it go to him. I'm glad it's finally in your town.

I feel like I need more motor. The cams aren't what I thought they would be. Other bikes I have cammed in the past seemed to wake up way more. I know I'll loose even more going to a short pipe but with a proper dyno tune maybe it'll be better. As of this point the bike is the same until I'm past 4k rpm then I wakes up a bit. I'm not impressed at this point.

I did the fuel moto 110 kit and am very happy with it. I'm at 120 square and this is estimated by my 1/4 mile times of 11.37@116.29 mph. I've never dyno tuned it .. I got my speed numbers from Dragy. I'm running 11.26:1 compression with woods 888 cams... You won't regret it.. Will need a bigger throttle body though.. Keep us posted.

Sorry to hear that.. It takes a lot of time and money to get a bike where you want it.. Your bike definitely looks sweet... I'm not a fan of the CR cams...
