Where there's a will, there's a way......
I travelled to FuelMoto to have them install/tune one of their 124" crate engines in my '16 Ultra.... the weather was forecasting some snow, so I trailered my bike.
It was a 4200 mile round trip....!!! Four days there... three days for the install/tune... four days home.
Absolutely no regrets....!!

All depends on what parts you have to start with. What exhaust? What heads do you want or already have? What clutch do you want? Do you want high end parts like a Ward ported intake? Do you want to upgrade your AC to the FM custom AC? Do you already have a tuner? Do you want to upgrade the TB? Its the combination of components that adds up to the total performance outcome.
A good starting point is the pricing for this base 128 kit on FM’s website https://www.fuelmotousa.com/i-238977...7-engines.html

call them, they are actually very friendly and will gladly walk you through a build and provide a price. It amazing how easy and free it is to get a price for what You want, vs what someone else did .

I have a build coming up with them and it's right at 7500 but I'm getting heads and the xxx header. Also s&s cam plate and pump and the light force for the clutch. After seeing heatwaves dyno numbers though I'm considering ditching the heads and saving a little cash. His sheet looked better than some of the builds they've done with heads.
