Yeah. I like it much more than the 883. Its faster, smoother and cruises muck better. Should have done this earlier.

Sounds great! Just what I like to hear.

So just to be clear, you kept your stock 883 cam/heads and used
the 1250 jugs with flat top pistons ?

thanks!

I used the basic 1250 kit with 10.1 30 degree reverse dome pistons. I used my head and cams. I also put in an energy one 15% stronger clutch kit. I put in a 38 tooth 1200 primary sprocket and new primary chain. You can keep the lower 883 gearing and take off faster. I wanted to cruse easier.
