....... but for those of us w/ TC88's, old frames & 5 spds and anemically powered stereos, the attraction is pretty strong
...... a thousand bucks, heck, two three times that, ..wouldn't get me anywhere near the kind of motorcycle that an FLTRK is sure to be.
............ of course, the color scheme's gotta be correct to get me really fired up to switch

Tis true, there have been dyno numbers posted on here by 103 Limited owners and a stock 103 Limited has 67 hp.
But all you will need is a cam upgrade to make one POP.

So the 103" might be the standard motor, Big Fing Deal. Just another way for MoCo to charge more for their bikes because it damn sure doesn't cost them any more to produce a 103 vs the 96. Bend over America, here come the next round of screwings. Now if they came out with a 110" or 113" for $500 then that might be worth it. The performance numbers between the 96 and 103 are too close to really matter in my opinion.

Dream on. I, my wife (she showed my 2008 Ultracized RG to the current CEO), and my dealership GM have tried since 2000 (when I first Ultracized my RG) to get an Ultra version of the RG from the factory. For 2010 you could not even order a standard RG. Some progress. As long as the bean counters say something will not improve the bottom line (and an Ultracized RG won't), it will not happen. By the way, my Ultracized 2008 RG does have CB.
