Stage 1 and 3
#11
If you can do it right now do within your 60 days window. The labor time listed by HD with no other requirements is 14 shop hours. Now different dealers will quote different rates and times and there is the dyno tune to figure in but that is what is the “booked” labor time by HD. Believe me you will certainly notice a difference. Right off the bat you get a nice cam lope and a much louder and deeper exhaust note. Once broken in correctly you will be all smiles.

Well, I picked up the bike last night. Wow, I'm in love again! Full stage 1 with the high flow exhaust. Not terribly loud around idle to 3000RPM, but much deeper and richer sounding. Idle has a nice lope sound, and a pleasing rumble similar to a rubber mounted engine. Not quite potato potato lope, but damn close with the stage 2 torque cam. When I hit around 3.5k and up it has a pretty authoritative growl. It used to just get louder above about 3.2k with no more noticeable power. Now it pulls like a Clydesdale all the way into the lower 5's. I'm glad I went this route vs the stage 3 or 4, I think the returns for me are better for my style of riding. Jury is still out on the automatic tuner module, I'm sure it is doing its job, just hard for me to really know. Oh well, it was only $360 more. No to rack up some more miles!

I have my King in the shop now for a Stage 3. $2620 out the door. Stage 1 was done. If you do get a Stage 3 I would highly recommend getting either the Heavy Breather or the Ventilator A/C with the build. My take is the SE A/C sucks the life from the build. I was charged 12 Hrs labor for the Stage 3 install with a 20/20 discount (Winter Rates in North Dakota).
