103 Build and counter balance engine
Bear with my ignorance but will the 103 build effect the counter balanced 88 engine? Will it vibrate more?
Thanks

Any increase in the stroke will result in a little more vibration...physics.

Thats what I needed to know. Thanks, I think I will stay stock with my Heritage. I bought the bike because of its smoothness. Great ride I love it.

The viberation is not really noticable. I had an 88 then upgraded to 95 and it ran smoother and I think viberated less then upgraded to 103. 103 viberate a little more at idle but that is it.

You would think that the engineering on these parts would take into consideration ,
the dynamocs of the couterbalancers. If it did not then it probably would not be offerred.
On a non counter balanced engine you can make H.P. by turning higher R.P.M. To make
H.P. on a rev restricted moter (due to bearing loads ac in the "B" motors) you have
to increase the displacement .Remember there is a place when "SIZE" matters.
