Greb, I had heard about the 98" kit from GMR. You might want to check it out. I will now be saving the pennies. http://www.gmrperformance.com/Twin_C...e_Packages.htm

 

I have yet to ride a 96 ci with the 6 speed. But I can say that I'm amazed with my tuned 95 over my stock 88. Just out of curiosity, what do you guys and gals run as far as rpm's with a6 speed at 70 mph? I'm running just under 3k at 70 in 5th.

 

70 mph is about 2600rpm, maybe 2650.

 

Don't have a tach so gathered data into a spreadsheet and came up with the attached image. It's based on an unconfirmed tire diameter taken from Dunlop's website; may be a couple percent leeway.

 

i'm comparing my 96" to my wifes 88b engine. there is a huge difference
in torque for a number of reasons. 1.more cubes 2.gearing is different
3. i think the counterbalanced "b" engine robs some ponies from my
wifes softail.

My 07 Electa Glide turns 2500 rpm at 70 mph.

 

I've never seen a cam that would peak at 2500 RPM's, but I'd like to find it if it exists!

 

Traded my 02 soft tail for an 07 road glide at 500 miles Reinharts TD SERT. 1000 mi went to Amsoil 20W50 all 3 holes went to Key West 800 miles days in Julywith a Friend His bike 06 ultra, His bike shut down in the heat in traffic. Mine ran cooler no problems. 2500 miles on her now keeps running better. Interstate mileage has been 47 to mpg with cruise set at 78 mph,around town 45

 

Follow-up:

I marked my rear tire and counted off 4 turns walking my bike down the street. Then measured the distance and divided by 4, arriving at 78.4" per tire rotation (for tires with ~3500 miles on them). Plugged that into the spreadsheet and got the attached results. Since I wasn't on the bike the rolling radius was likely a bit greater but I'd guess that, at speed, centrifugal force would factor in a bit so I feel confident this chart is representative of what's really happening. Needles on gauges could well be a few percent off but the gearing is always 100% correct.
