I think going to the 120R would make it too pricey. It would be a beast, but you could get good numbers with SE heads, cam, and the 103 which is what I bet it has if it comes available here.
the more i think of it , the more i like it , if its properley tuned and handles a bit more like the XR , then will buy it next year , id be expecting around 100 BHP , and torque figures to match , that will do it for me , ill sort the fender out later
I've never really understood bikes like this, or to a lesser extent the XR1200, but there seem to be plenty of other people that are excited about it... I guess anything that gets more people excited about Harleys is good.
Personally, if I cared that much about handling I would have bought a Buell.

Ther are different levels of handling and riding experience. A Buell or any sport bike are as comfortable as a visit to the proctologist. With my DX or this new one. You get superglide comfort with better handling and braking. The ehaust is easily changed, just as everyone does. The rest of the bike is pure dyna taken up a notch. For all the Fatbob and streetbob guys that say they like to tackle the twisties, they don't even know how much more fun this is. You still have a Harley that is yours and ready for your own personal touches. Other than wheels,brakes and suspension, all other Superglide parts will interchange. Stock and aftermarket.
You people can build this exact bike with your existing 06-12 dyna....its cool and all but u can build one like this or better all it takes is some hard earned money. Im done financing ****....

Well, yeah. If you ride slow in a straight line a FXDX or XR1200 ain't going to do nothing for you.
