Update on 883 to 1200 conversion: Break in period is complete, changed all fluids and put Mobil 1 back in all the holes. Cranking the trottle all the way down is unbelievable how much power was actually gained. One of the guys I ride with has a 2007 American Ironhorse with the 110" super sidewinder S&S engine. 1/4 mile run he only
got me by 3-4 bike lengths. Bike pulls very strong. Would definitely recommend this conversion to anyone thinking about it.
Thanks for the info I am really thinking about doing it but at the same time I have toyed with the idea of trading in for a Night Rod special but then I will have payments I don't right now.....
