My Point... Come on over to 131 end of July... I'll buy you a Beer, and we'll see some Real Harley Racing... Won't hear many excuses either...

Hoping to see the Outlaw Street bikes out in force... 8-second 160 MPH foot shift, no Bar... No Excuses...

Couldn't help that last... Know that there are 10 times more Stockish bikes than all out race machines.....

Very true, but a modded new bike will come up against a bigger cubed Evo, a bigger cubed Evo will come up against a bigger cubed Twin Cam, a bigger cubed Twin Cam will come up against a Procharged big cube. It is just a viscous cycle of big wallet or credit card racing, let's just let Ace enjoy riding one hell of a older nice bike in the world of technology.

2014 Slim
Decent stage one and a 30/70 final drive upgrade.
Never really tested other than what the seat of my pants tell me its a really fast machine.
Making it faster for me means having to really do a huge upgrade of my brakes and suspension.
As is o, there are times when I’m going faster than what these componets can handle. So I try and behave.
That, or get a Ducati. Love V twins.

Point is my new antique stock evo 111 with no extra valves and plugs will smoke a higher money bigger inch engine and just just want to cry about it. Very funny Id say.
