2300 is not going to go far. You do realize that your going to need to purchase high flow pipes,high flow mufflers,air cleaner,cams and a tuner to do that 107 kit. Then your going to have to have it dyno tuned.

Well I did both upgrades this year. For me, the motor work is what I get fired up about when I take the bike out. The engine sound and the difference of the overall riding experience is more bang for the buck than a louder radio.

Headwork and a cam,get a little more compression by decking the heads. Use the $$$ saved on the 107 on a good tune / tuner.

Have you built reliable motors in the past? Do ya have all the right tools to do the job? There is a major difference between putting parts together and building a reliable high output motor. I've got 45K miles on my 107 with 121/132. Not a project that I think I could build myself but only by a very experienced professional. That car tire isn't on the bike just for looks.
