800 miles later, 117 kit coming in off of back order, yesterday I bought it home with the 117 installed. The advantage of doing it after taking delivery, I got to feel the difference. I can share this for it was a rainy day and a short ride home, TORQUE! The Street Cannons truly woke up, with the higher compression I had a feeling they would. The mechanic that did the build returned from the test ride w a huge smile on his face (yes I was there for heat cycles and test ride &#128512. I know there is a lot left on the table using the Harley Tuner and can't wait till guys like FM and others have a header, better A/C and a tune available. As Alan mentioned this is now all under warranty. Headers and tuners can come off if there is any sort of issues.

MOCO decided I guess to reduce cost, they don't provide the updated badging. No worries though for when the bike is fired up and one listens, it's truly apparent it's not a 114 anymore. Nice lopie cam at the low idle sounds great.

Did they tune it on the dyno? Can you post the dyno of your new 117?
