hey thanks! it isn't the tire shredder kit it is simply a displacement kit. i was stripping the bike anyhow for powder coat and the dealer gave me the kit cheap as this is the 3rd bike i have built there in the last few years. initially i was going to do cams and adjustable pushrods to wake it up a little but i figured i would check out what a bit more displacement would do first

The 110 kit will give you around 10.2-1 comp. you'll need a good tune/ tuner or you may get some ping.good luck.

Chad again not trying to discourage you in any way and it is your bike and the CFR's sound awesome if you like loud but they just have no baffling in them so they hold no back pressure which in turn hurts the bottom end of the tune. I'd suggest talking to some tuners or even looking over at harley tech talk in the dyno section and see what some of your major tuners say about the exhaust on bikes. Jamie from Fuel-Moto also posted something where he showed a comparo of mufflers and end results between a good combo and a bad combo, I even posted something about this as well. So I'm just trying to help not discourage at all but in the end it's yours and only you can make the final call, good luck !!!

Update: bike stripped stage 3 110 kit going back in. Front wheel and forks powder coated in the pic. The gloss powder came out great but the wrinkle wasn't acceptable so the dealer sent it back.. So waiting on that hopefully won't be too long.

Did you ride the bike before the tear-down so you can notice the difference?

No I bought it brand new and it never left the dealer. I have a 103 in my dyna I will compare it to which has seen different upgrades. I have friends with the 103 ho I will have to ride with to see how big of a difference there is
