As for power you can put a mild 103 together on a budget and have 100 hp and 110 tq without breaking the bank. Sure you will never win a dyno shoot out. But at some point there has to be a cut off point. Riding a bagger with 110 ftlbs of tq is fun. IS 130 better??? HA HA we all know that it is ...

The milds builds are easy on the wallet and provide great bang for the buck".

I finished a mild 103 build on a budget, ended up with 98 hp/112 tq if I could have afforded it, and or started from ground zero, who knows what may have happened. GOOD ADVICE GMR THANKS! I am happy...for now anyway.

After being hit by a truck in August I'm recovering well, the bike is still in the hospital. Lets see what happens with some of the settlement $$ I think I may just step up 120/120, that way I can get out of the way of fools that lose control of their 4 wheeled cages.

Ed glad you are feeling better very well said.
keep the warranty for as long as you can then decide whatt you want.

Say Budget just enough for getting the SE103 kit installed (starting from a 96). This doesn't void the warranty or anything.

Now how about taking that same amount of money and put it in a cam and...
whatever else that $1200 ish gets you.

Last Feb I just did cams and new lifters only.. dealer had a winter special for cams, $725 with dyno, plus I had new lifters for $100 more....$825 total, installed for all and tuned...
