I put a few thousand miles on then look at up grading to the 120R kit. looks like all I'll need is the Pro stoker kit and new pistons might as well go to those 12.1's YES power is very addictive!!
I was thinking the 103 kit is an excellant compromise between the stock de-tuned engine and a *****-to-the-wall 120" screamer.
Personally, I'm dissapointed with stock performance (I was expecting a LOT more from a 96" engine), but going to Stage 4 with 113 or 120" bore seems excessive if I want to keep the bike long term and tour now and then. Common sense makes me think increasing the bore 20% can't make for a long-term proposition.
Anyway, maybe when I get the 103" kit I may think differently
