I’ve just ordered 6.5” straight Drags risers and going to attempt to fit without cable changes. I’ve done a few bar swaps prior so the process doesn’t put me off, it’s just the ABS module issue with the new upper line. I’ll change them if it’s tight.
What length clamp bolts do I need as I noticed a few people mention the stock ones are too long?
[QUOTE=Mchad;18592680]After about a month with the Rinehart 2:1, while I really liked the deep sound it output, it was just too loud for me. So since the D&D Fat Cat has known fit problems with taller shocks, and also bad lean angles, I decided to go back to the S&S SuperStreet I previously had on my Low Rider.
In a previous thread Bowhunter8607 had discussed the DB reducer that comes installed from the factory. He made it clear that removing it made a noticeable loss of low end torque, but cutting it down didn’t hurt performance and increased volume.
So so today I took a ride up to a dyno guy I know and had at it.
The red run is with the full DB reducer, and the blue is cutting 4” off the total length.
Interestingly, no real world difference between the two. A bit less low end and a bit more top end. But I doubt it would ever be felt.
I was a little surprised at the 103 total HP, it felt like more, but conversely very happy with the torque curve. Over 110 at 2200rpms and a nice peak of 128. Makes for a great feeling ride. And the torque explains why it feels so crazy fast. The RedShift 468 is definitely a torque monster.
I expect with some more aggressive tuning I could get some more out of it, but we didn’t spend a lot of time on it, just some tweaking.
All in all, I’m very happy with the performance.
Also to mention, I wanted to raise the S&S brake pedal so I replaced the stock linkage with a Bung King adjustable shifter linkage which let me easily raise the pedal an inch. Worked out well.
By chance have you done a sound comparison video. Would love to hear it. Considering doing this myself.
