Default Road king custom mods

I'm new here to the forums. Just want some opinions. My cam tensioners were getting noisy during a ride on Father's Day. Took my scooter to my mechanic and now I'm getting some work done while it's apart. I'm going with kuryakyn true dual head pipes, mellow crusher mufflers, air cleaner, tts tuner, 95" bore, heads ported and polished with 5 angle valve job, and 2g wild things cams!

Went with the true duals with the crusher mellows! Cam has a slight lope with more compression. The 97 sounds awesome! Still breaking it in!
