Default Fuel moto 117 kit for 2018 softtail

Hey everyone. I know there are post already about this but they all seemed to get junked up a little. I am really considering going with the fuel moto 117 kit for my street bob. My question is, their website shows them for the touring models but doesn't really list them for the new softails. Now I am pretty sure all will be ok considering they are the same motors, but I am wondering if the cam it comes with would be a good one. I can see how it would be good for a bagger but with us being lighter, maybe there will be a better suited one? Also I would appreciate any opinions on the kit, people who have purchased a big bore kit, and anyone who has installed.

Thanks,
Frank

Call and talk to them. Their customer service is second to none. They will answer any questions you have about your build. Tell them how you ride and they will have plenty of options.

They have always given me options without trying to up-sell....

They know how their kits perform with the various cams available. Tell them what you want and they will be able to give you options based on their knowledge and experience...

Post back what you end up doing and how it works out...!

Hey Frank, we do have kits for the M8 Softails but the trouble right now is that there aren't exhaust systems available currently for the new Softail's models to really support the big bore/cam's. Give us a call.

Second to none. When I get some extra cash to toss around, I'll be doing a FM build.

Spf fabrications can make you a pipe. I'm close to having him build me one.

Bassani already makes exhaust for the 2018 soft tail models... That's not enough flow?

Appreciate the reply. I'll give you all a shout this week to try and help determine what you think is best for what I am looking for.
