Not anything to get ones underwear in a tussle over. Good point/math computation on your part.

I was initially concerned about the high revs needed to access the power band. I have no more concerns. Its a great package. You access the power band quickly. Its not so torquey that you break the tires loose but within approximately a second your in the power. Its works great for me. I think its easier to understand the dyno charts when you are actually feeling it on the bike. I went from stage II torque cam (which was a beast in itself) to the stage IV with the power cam so I feel like I have a pretty good comparison. If I had to do again I probably would have stopped at a stage III. Im not sure there is much of a difference. With the stage IV, im pretty confident that the harley package delivers a lot more power than the bike can handle. Im pushing the rev limit on gears 1-3 and chickening out in 4th. The bike gets too sketchy for my taste around 120. I would be curious of your opinion of an after market stage kit. I have seen some of the numbers. I would like to know if its ride able.
Good luck
it is on a fat bob. This bike stay pretty solid and staight even in a curve whit that quebec bad pavment

Can we talk more about the head welding with the 124 kit?
