I had a TC88 Dyna and installed a 21T compensator in place of the stock 25T. With just a basic stage 1 that would flat walk away from........

Jus' sayin'.

I hated to turn the Lowrider down. It is a new 2015 and they offered it to me for $12995 plus tax, title, and license. No other fees. But the Sportster will be paid for in a couple of months so I am going to keep it.

let see the lowrider was $13,000 plus taxes so probably close to $14,000 by the time you are done. Plus like you said more insurance.

Sounds like you will save about $13,000 by keeping the Sporty!!

Yeah, I can see that.


You know, I miss the TC 88's they had better low end grunt to start with than the 96 platform.

I think the hammer set up comes with a lighter set up than nrhs. Different piston design. What 1250 kit are you running "bonnieville racer"??? 😁
