May be a dumb question, but what makes up the different stages? Stage 1 is slip-ons, a different breather and a little different ecm map download. What makes up the stage 2, 3 and 4?

 

The stages are something Harley made up. In their world stage two would add cams, stage 3 is cams and big bore, stage 4 is cams big bore and ported heads.

 

Stage 1: Air Cleaner and Slip Ons
Stage 2: Add Cams
Stage 3: add more aggressive cams, higher compression pistons
Stage 4: Head work, larger throttle body.

H-D has both street legal and non-street legal kits in the S/E Race Catelog - there are differences between Legal and street legal. The S/E race catalog should be available at your dealer.

 

Bore has nothing to do with it. there is a stage I 103, stage 2 103, stage 3 103 and stage 4 103.

 

Roger that.....

 

It's better if you don't concern yourself the marketing nonsense that HD made up. Stages are for strippers.

 

I guess I have a 2 1/2 since I have cams, A/C, ported and polished 103 heads, slip-ons, gutted head pipes and TTS tuner?

 

this....................

 

stage 1 = Dependability.
stage 2 = Hoover vacuum sound.
stage 3 = No going back.
stage 4 = Pass it on to the unsuspecting for something that will get you back home
