I like the fact don’t have to go into the cam chest and it’s all bolt on. Seems like a well matched pkg: • Includes 4.125" Bolt-On Cylinders, Forged 9.9:1 Compression Pistons & Rings, 58mm Throttle Body, High Flow Fuel Injectors, SE-259E Cams, Perfect-Fit Pushrods, High-Capacity Roller Tappets, Inner Cam Bearing, Top End & Cam Cover Gasket
And the price is great with my 20% discount on parts and labor.

You pointed out the exact reason I did not do the Harley kit. Its not well matched at all. Not near enough compression for the SE-259E cam. The 259E should be using a compression ratio of 11.0 to 1 or slightly higher.
How you going to change the cam with out going into the cam chest?
So I drove down to Texas and picked it up and trailered it back to va. Bike has been ridden a total of 300 miles all year and has 2629 on the odometer. Absolutely beautiful. the paint sparkles in the sun! Bike is like new, very happy with my purchase. Here are a couple of photos.
So after putting about 1000 miles on it, I decided to leave the motor alone. The bike runs great and while it doesnt have the torque of my 131 cvo, its a very easy revving motor and you can peg the needle pretty quick. I did install the RW RS-1 shocks (big upgrade!), black heat shields , black mirrors. Gonna remove the fairing mirrors this weekend and plug the holes and I'll be done for now.
