Default What happened after you upgraded your motor?

I am trying to list all possible answers, you can just mention number or add whatever I missed.
1.I keep bragging about the upgrade
2.I get to work (bar, restaurant etc) faster.
3.I race every bike and car at traffic light.
4.I started track racing.
5.I ride 100mph on highway, I could only do 90 before upgrade.
6.All girls love me now. I do one in the morning and another one in the evening.
7.I keep bragging about the upgrade
8.It runs like sh.t and I have no idea how to fix it.
9.I keep bragging about the upgrade

What did I miss?

10. I can now easily stay ahead of minivans
11. I can now dictate the pace I travel at, rather than have the lethargic stock motor tap out for me
12. I can enjoy the sound

I just like the power there, upgraded to a fuel motor 107 from a 103, got new M8 and upgraded to stage 3 114", I am done though, lots of money wasted and really the 114" is more then I ever need. I am finally content, kind of!!!

Adding the 110 Kit to the Dyna was a vast improvement over stock. Hell, it was a vast improvement over the Stage II. It's allowed me to smoke a couple of my buddies off the line. Which is always fun for a few bragging rights! Couple of negatives: Don't get as much mileage out of a rear tire anymore, and gas mileage has gone to complete ****. Wonder why

Edit: Oh, it sounds amazing too!!

You missed the fact that winter is just about over.

I put cams in it, now all the ricers wanna race me at stop lights because it sounds so bad-***!

Oh, chicks loved it before. They still do. I could do one anytime I wanted if the pharmaceutical assistance wasn't so expensive

#1. If people would stop posting serious answers to your BS threads, you'd quietly go away.

My hot rod bike barks like a scalded dog when I twist the throttle.

I can pass much easier when I have the need, even when oncoming traffic would be a concern for me on the bike that is not built for power and speed.

Nananabooboo....
