Got a Brother-in-law in Lufkin. Just traded his metric for an 09 Ultra Classic. You might know him? He is a "big-wig" (little guy) DPS Trooper. Does all the D.A.R.E. and Public Relations stuff for DPS in Lufkin. I think he's even running for Sheriff there??
By-the-way ...what size wheels you running on that bike? Whats your suspension set-up...lowered in the front? It's got a good stance. Ride good with that 21"?

I'm running a 21" front and a 17" rear.
Yes the front has been lowered 1" with the HD lowering kit. It rides fine.
If I ever did it again I would just do a 19" though, just because it's still a pain in the **** to lift it off the kick stand.

TFB, you have one of the more tastefully done bikes on this forum. I remember when you did the stage IV but I cant remember what all was done exactly. Do you mind me asking what all you did, how much coin it cost and what kind of numbers you got from it? Also is the SE/AC enough air cleaner for your build?
103 jugs, forged high compression pistons, 110 SE heads, a new 58mm throttle body, SEST, perfect fit push rods.
The kit is $2,500 plus at least 10 hours labor.
I also did the automatic compression releases (that were already drilled for, in the 110 heads)
and just for my own satisfaction, I did the SE compensator and a starter for the SE 110 (just so I wouldn't have any trouble).
The SEST has a download specificaly for the "Stage IV kit" but a dyno will be better after it breaks in.
It's a little over a 100 hp and 100 tq.
I'm not posting exact numbers, because of the internet garage experts Blowing off about how this or that will give you more hp or tq.
Needless to say I am happy how it turned out. I don't drive fast, but I do like to get to the speed limit pretty fast. lol
I'm not into dyno sheet shoot outs. I just wanted it to hop, if I ever got on the throttle.
One word of warning though: you will probably loose about 10% fuel milage.
