I have a chopper with an S&S 111 that makes tons of power and a 1985 evo all stock (original owner) that was recently dynoed at 47 hp. the stock evo makes plenty of power for my style of riding and I don't ride the 111 any different. I remember hearing somebody say "why be in a hurry to get to the accident?"

That it is,this morning with 6 more inches of snow it is 10 degrees with a breeze.The John deere does a good job of cleaning the yards.I love it though,wood stove keeps us toasty,and have plenty to keep my mind off the Harley until spring.

JS124 how is the 113 coming? All that is left for my 155" is one more intermediate jet change and the motor will be dailed in.Just have to wait until the temp stays above 50 degrees for a while.
