Chap, its not worth looking up...I dont have any original information to share because I gave it to my Indy to work out.

Everybody ends up with damn near the same HP and the cam was spec'd for low and mid so its all good.

Cant wait to get it back...it snowed here today but It cant last forever.

You got less than a month till spring, if you arent on the road you are going to be missing out bro...Im doing one more thing when I get my bike back from the motor work, then Im going to wash it and ride it for a month or two without doing another damn thing but put gas in it.

Im out of mods anyway, I couldn't find chrome tires...
Post count, do we get a prize? LOL We're heading into spring, we've got 70s in this weeks forecast. Once we get through February, we're pretty well on our way to some decent days. I've got to get this wrapped up though cuz I don't like rollin on the OLs Sporty, it just ain't the same. lol Your sled it sic with mods and I know you'd have to dig deep to find anything more to do
with her. Until they come out with chrome walls for the tires, your about done with the eye candy. lol

Im getting a 98 big bore kit and cams with a dyno tune.

It was time, all that chrome was weighing the bike down...I had to kick off at stops just to get it going again
I try to, like pooch said, especially those by my buds on here. Did I miss one? LMAO - my jack is starting to bend from the weight of it all!! I know the internal mods are going to creep into my mind next....gawd, I've got to enjoy her for a while first and try to hang on until I get some miles on her. That 98 kit and cams will be sweet! I'd love to at least get some mile cams.

Dean's probably putting more parts on as we speak (write,LOL) While pooch is pulling his hair out over his wheels!
I was out in the garage stressing over these freaking controls. LOL Trying to enjoy it all but these pedals....arrrrgg The brake pedal at least is awesome.

Yeah, I think Motown has that mod in draft and not release unless it was since I went to the garage or it got moved out of the Softail section. lol

So get to modding that engine bro. Save me some research. got to figure out how to lug an additonal 500 lbs of chrome. LOL
Hell yeah, he can blaze the trail for us that are left and who will moving into the internal mods soon. LOL

I have to say, I'm really liking the Kuryakyn Girder brake arm and extended pad I got in today. It's advertised as being extended an inch but it really measures out to about 1/4", although it is nice and beefy with a great finish. The Extended pad fits nice and looks like a nice quality item. The biggest disappointment was with the Kuryakyn Girder Shift levers - these things are no comparison to the brake arm and are about the size of a pencil. Just not at all what I am looking for.

Think I'm going to pull the trigger on the Carl Brouhard Designs heel-toe shifter and give it a shot. It's a little more than the Ness was that I tried, but the Ness seemed a little oversized. Regardless, if I order the CBD, it's the end of the line and will be the one regardless! LOL

Kuryakyn Girder-Style Extended Brake Pedal 1027

Kuryakyn Extended Brake Pedal Pad 4456

Here's a little comparison with the stock pedal. Like I said, I really liked the size of the Kuryakyn...nice pedal.


Mocked up since I'll need to pull it all over to swap out the motor mount bolts later this week when they get here.

Non taken brutha, I'm ate slap the f()rk up!!!! It's like I'm raging on chromroids!! LMAO I thought it would get better the closer I got to being done, but now it's all the little things! LOL

BTW - I think I mentioned earlier, for any of you with or who will be ordering Samson Cholos etc, they do offer Chrome muffler/exhaust support brackets. Mine are boxed and dropped off enroute back to exchange out.

Chap, the fuel moto 107 kit is kick ***. Depending on your exhaust and cam you choose, most guys are getting right around 100hp/115-120tq and its only like $1299 plus $600 if you have FM build it for you.

Dean, there's no stopping you is there? Looking good "again", no pic of the levers your sending back? You got a timing cover on the way too?

Deluxeguy, just took a look on net, seems good! couldn't have it done there though, it'd cost me a fortune to ship my engine there! LOL!

Tell me about it! We end up paying 40% more for everything, once we've added shipping costs & getting done at customs! To buy the bike is about the same extra too! A Brand new Deluxe over here, after working out exchange would be around $25,000
Mind you, I normally holiday in the US, so I brought a load of parts back with me!
