You're right, the 117" with a 4 3/8 stroke is a blast. Before we did the 117" the motor was a 107" and there is no comparison. The 117" is a hugh step up in performance.

Nice job on the build. A well built 117" motor provides excellent performance. Looking at your dyno sheet, I think you're going to have a blast riding it!
Thanks!! Your bike must be a handful also!! I am hoping to improve the numbers after a break-in period. Put 150 miles on today and this amount of power is incredible!!
Don't be! I am not some rich guy with money to throw around. I have been riding bikes for 42 years and Harleys for 30. I was able save up over a long time for this project and feel blessed to make my dream come true! This bike and build will carry me through the rest of my riding days. Merry Christmas to all of you!
Hell, I've been ridin' 40 years/Harleys about 23 and I'm jealous! This might be my last bike. Just starting on the mods though.
