Default slow boy




I have a 07 fatboy with Vance and Hines pipes. big sucker air cleaner and fuel pack My friend has a 2000 big dog with a 105 SS motor. He out runs me with little effort, Are there any performance improvement I can do without major engine work that will allow me to at lease keep up with him. The exhaust helped greatly but need more.

You can beat him now. All you need to do is let the air out of one of his tires just before you drag.
