Listened to all the reasons not to use SE parts for this build but did anyway. Guess what, this bike kicks ***. CNC SE heads, 10.5 pistons, 260 cams, SE pro air cleaner, race tuner, 2 into 1 fat cat, 58mm TB, 114hp, 109 tq. Lots of shinny stuff, painted inner fairing, Klock 8 1/2". Jims Harley (St. Pete) had some trouble with the tune but got it perfect.

Glad you are pleased. Good thing you are at 10.5:1 with those 260's. Might have been able to bump your tq some more with the 259's, but what's important is that it rides good and you are happy.

 

Stage 4? Man I cant follow this SE wankspeak.

What size is a stage 4? 103, 110 or 113??

Regardless the results sound good, by the sounds of the numbers she is peaky, tuned for top end not mid range which is worth applauding... Can you post a chart? Pics?

 

It's a 103 and he's happy .

 

Nice! That had to have totally transformed your ride.

 

i also did a stage iv and love it, i have no need for anymore!

 

absolutely nothing wrong with SE parts -- some just like to use aftermarket stuff -- one of my riding bud's has SE 103 with CNC SE heads and chain drive in his RG -- use to kick my HQs 103 azz on a regular basis

 

I was thinking about the Strage IV last winter. How's your gas milage? If you can keep your hand out of it long enough for a normal ride.

 

Nothing wrong with SE parts...I think it's that there are other companies out there that make just as good of parts if not better for less money, which sometimes yield better results as well.

But,...and this is the HUGE caveat, Do what you feel comfortable with and that which makes you happy...as long as you are happy with the results, that is all that matters.

Enjoy your new improved ride.

 

...... engine stages, i believe, don't pertain to sizes. They deal w/the level of modification you've done to whatever engine you run.

Stage 1 - pipes, AC (& tuner ?)
Stage 2 - Cams + all the above
Stage 3 - Heads + all the above
Stage 4 - fkng got me ?

....... did i get this right ? My total engine modification so far is 33% of a stage 1, so i'm certainly no expert.
