Default What mod should I do next ?
I have a 1996 fxstc. Had Hillside do the cylinder head work this past winter. Also 85 inch big bore kit with 10:5 to 1 flat top wiseco pistons. Adjustable pushrods,big breather, makuni carb, D&D fatcat, s&so ignition module, s&so cases. Dyno at 91hp and 93 to at 5200 rpm. Was thinking some progressive 422 shocks and dna fat spoke wheels. Any other thoughts for power etc ?

Isn't it fast enough? Comes a time when you start sacrificing reliability for power.
Good shocks, brake upgrade and fork improvements will give you more bang for the buck than bling wheels etc.

Like I said before. You have a good combination there. You put any more to that you just might shear your crank pin.... As me how I know......

FWIW, I've laid out something of an approximate plan over the next few years that looks like this:

This Winter: All about the chassis. Thinking about Glide Pro mounts, front and back, upgrading to a 2002+ swingarm using the CCE kit with spherical bushings, CCE Tour Trac upgrade on the forks. Some kind of upgrade to the fork internals, but hard to say what.

Next Winter: Baker DD6!!

Following Winter: Motor. By then I'll probably be at about 50k miles, and I'm hoping to be able to do a proper job on the motor. Get the crank trued, or maybe go to a stroker. Heads, cam, lifters, pistons, ignition. Maybe go to S&S carb, or not. Who knows. I've got time to ponder.
