Optional EFI or Carb
FLHTC = Carbed
FLHTCI = EFI

OP. Great Bike. Not going to be the fastest, but easy to work on, and usually trouble free. 1998, the last of the touring EVO's

Ok, here we go:

The Competition Pro Pipe is too big for the little 80 incher, sound will be good but power is going to be soft with lack of back pressure. Suggestions: keep the Pro Pipe and get a 124" to create more back pressure, everybody knows that.

The big motor you just bought loves the load a Baker OD6 puts on it when pulling 6th gear, peanut butter and jelly.
