Default 103 vs 107 vs 110

So we have a few people here who have done the 103 kit.

I have seen recommendations for the Axtell 107 kit. Axtell offers a 110 kit as well

HD is now offering the CVO 110 kit.

Thoughts? I am quite happy with my 96 at the time. But being one who never leaves well enough alone .... you get the idea.

I've known plenty of guys with the 103 (all using different cams) and they love it. I have heard from others (and from a tech or two at the local dealership) that the MoCo is having trouble with the 110. Haven't heard about the 107 as of yet.

107 is max for just pulling the cylinders, you need to bore the cases for 110 so you might as well go bigger than 110 if you want to go that route.

I'm in process of installing a 107 in my fatbob. I sent off the heads/cylinders for work this week. HOpe to have it all together in 2-3 weeks.

A couple years ago I got a good deal on a new SE 4 3/8 crank and over the winter my 88 became a 103...111hp/117ft lbs...
I considered boring the spigots and going "larger" but there comes a point when other components have to be upgraded as well (ie clutch) and with only an SE pressure plate my bike has run hard for 2 years now with no problems. Having said that; I'm planning on taking off the top end this winter to check the crank and heads; if the crank has to come out for re-bearing or whatever I'll go 113inch. The 110 has a different spigot that once done won't allow other cylinders to be used; at least that's the way I read it in the SE catalog...as far as aftermarket cylinders; I'm sure they're OK, but I prefer to use as much SE stuff as I can. Check the torque below 2500rpm on the dyno sheet; that's the kind of curve I like and a 113 should move the numbers up nearly 10%.....

I'm also in CT, just picked up a new WG from HD of Danbury, had them throw in a CVO 110", fully under warrantee. Love it for what it is, AFAIK all the initial 110" issues are no longer a big deal.

I was going to purchase the 110 and had the money in hand. HD asked what I was looking for and I told them more power. They told me to go 103 and not the 110. The 110 has higher emission standards and the 103 will leave the 110 standing still.

I'll have to check that link, thanks Thorn

Greg ... did you talk to Al? I know he had a kit done on his WG not sure which one though. I bought my bike at HD of Danbury as well.
