Default Bike runs fantastic...

I bought my current bike in August 2016 and have not been able to say it’s good where it’s at performance wise.

As I rode in to work today I thought to myself, “ Damn this bike is running great, sounding great, and pulling strong. There is actually nothing I need to do to the engine in the near future”.

Well...... I guess I’ll just ride it then!

Sounds like a plan! Though, I recently commented to a buddy about how well my bike ran on a recent trip. Since then, I found I have an oil leak coming from the shifter shaft. I should have kept my trap shut.

I feel the same way about my bike , just finished all the upgrades I want to over the winter . Someday I'll consider a cam upgrade , but I won't start a thread about it . I'll just ask you !

I've heard nothing but great things about the 48's so that's the direction I'm going .

48’s, Powervision, 2:1 Jackpot, and Jaime’s support from Fuel Moto have my bike dialed in.

Mine too but can't ride for couple days do to leg surgery yesterday. It's making me crazy, that's why I'm up in the middle of the night can't sleep, need to ride. Missed two good sunny days and it looks like one more to come in the morning. Hopefully be many more after pain is gone.

Pain is just weakness leaving your body... Hurry up and get back on the road!

It's almost time to address my 2016 Ultra.... I'm a customer of FuelMoto, used them for several things including tuner/tunes.

I'm impressed with everything I've read about the combination you are running...... glad to hear it's running well..... !

I am leaning in that direction.....

But....

Then there are the CR570-2 cams.....

And FuelMoto also does a 117ci big bore kit that also strengthens the crank on a twin cam engines.........

Can't ignore that FuelMoto also offers the FuelMoto 124" Street Outlaw S&S crate engine.......


Yeah, I have the sickness....

Glad you have your bike where you want it to be....!!

That’s what I’ll be looking at when my 96 gives up on me.
