head clean-up
SE Deluxe,
I am thinking of doing the heads and possibly TB. Probably will not bump the compression, 200 CCP is about all the starter can take. When I do the heads I will get compression releases to ease the burden on the starter. I usually hang out on the other forum so if I do it I will post the after results there. The before results are already posted.

200ccp and you dont have comp releases........put them in just for one of those days when you never know.. what type of head are you going with????
i have an 05 deluxe you should see what i am doing with it. i had it at the shop and took her home because of some sarcastic remarks that some people on this forum and others were making.. i hacked it up and put a 200mm tire on it and new fender as well as a inverted forks. its really coming together.
Dave is a good guy and did not deserve what certin members and sponsors said to him..

headwork for SE251
SE
I will not talk about who's heads I will go with. There is too much controversy and second guessing. I will talk about objective for the heads though. All I think I want is compression releases, slightly bigger intake valves with 7mm stems, stronger behive springs such as SE or Comp and a decent porting/valve job.
Then maybe rework my stock TB at HPI or buy the SE 50 TB with the bigger injectors. I think either one would feed the expected 110+ HP/TQ.
It will not be a monster motor but it will be just what a hot bagger should be. Although someone with a toque monter 120" might disagee with the last statement.

capt, not bad for stock heads . 251's are good all around cams but don't have the torque of some or the top end of others. But for these heavier bikes they work well don't have any big holes in them, for me they don't have the top end I want but still looking for something that is fairly quiet ,chain driven .650 lift cams and won't completely kill the lower end .
