All the waiting is melting my head. Ive got everything I need except the tuner.
On the upside I've got about 500 miles on the new bike in the meantime. I just have to live with knowing people are saying "Was that a sewing machine that just went by?"
I would recommend considering a billet compensator ramp, S&S 55mm ported intake manifold, and 5.5 injectors as well.
The stock plastic intakes are known to warp and cause air leakage issues.
This is good advice. In fact, I would consider these are "required". When I installed my CR480 the comp was immediately unhappy at idle. I checked with Fuel Moto and they said they have seen the same. I would have replaced it over the winter, but lost that bike to an accident.
The S&S camplate and pump are nice pieces, but not really necessary in the later M8 years. But hey, if it's in the budget why not.
