For some reason, the ones with cams and headwork aren't all that impressive compaired to 95" either.
I wouldn't mind racing you. You travel?

i"d have to argue that point,these close ratio 6spds against the older 5s is like a muncie 4spd against 3 on the tree.

I wouldn't mind either. Here is a link to my build BTW https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-...o-results.html

The point of my post wasn't to knock anyone or their ability. There is always a better rider out there, and always a bike with more HP. The point I was trying to make is simple. Look at the numbers the 96's and 103's make and you will see that even though they have quite a bit of displacement advantage over 88's and 95's they arent making quite as big of a power difference as one would think.

But just so you know I'm the track manager at Thunder Valley Bristol International Raceway, so printing up a time slip with any time I want is a no brainer.
I'll be more then happy to race any 06 or newer Dyna on the strip or across US 129 or US 421.
Whenever you get tired of being a key puncher and want to see who's got a really fast bike you let me know.
