hey whats up smokindave no i just used screamin eagle heads and havent done anything to the clutch either. i know this bike pulls really hard thats what gets me about the numbers. you right they dont mean nothing iam just gonna ride screw it. take care.

 

My 103 cranks hard and has manual releases. IF I forget to use the releases when Hot it'll try to crank, then backfires sometimes. If you got 'em, use 'em. Building another 103 w/ 10.5 to ones and using automatic releases this time, sick of burning my fingers.
-Got a Dyno run using the SE259's? I've been anxious to find out how they perform, any low end? I'm running Andrews 55's and they RIP from 2300 up w/ good heads. I've still got a set of Crane 290-2's on hand, has anyone ran THEM @ 10.5 to one? Is there a link to member's cam evaluations anywhere?

 

Running a HQ 120" at 10.5:1. Have toured all over the US with it, 35k miles on the build do far and very reliable.

When you build, have it tuned for the gas/elevation in your area. When touring, if you get into poor gas, high elevations, etc, it may mean you might have to downshift a little earlier to avoid detonation, but still very rideable.

I have a 2010 Ultra in my garage now that I am doing HQ 107 10.5:1 build for the owner. No problems or worries as far as reliability or rideability.

 

Anyone running a 98" at 10.5? I'm curious which cams you're running.

Thanks,
Rick
