Frankly, you can spend a lot less money on your '97 than you would on an '09, and end up with a lot more bike. I wouldn't hesitate to buy a new tranny or Evo-style engine or anything else that might fail, rather than replace my Evo FXRS with a new bike.
I wouldn't be at all surprised if the EV27 doesn't outperform the SE-3, despite the similarity in specs. Andrews always seems to be much more on top of cam science than H-D. As for the estimates of where the power is in the rpm range, even the EV13 doesn't come on strong at 1500 rpm. Gotta take a lot of those types of estimates with a grain of salt. But on a street bike, seat of the pants "feel" is more important than any other measurement of how a bike performs. And both the EV13 and 27 seem to please a lot of asses. Did that come out right?
