My '13 FLHR is perfect
My '13 FLHR is perfect
I traded my '07 Heritage in June for a '13 RK. My initial impression was "wow this thing turns and stops so much better than my Heritage but it feels under powered."
I added Fullsac baffles, FL-Vieds, and Big Sucker for slight improvement. I changed the bars for Heritage style and rode it for the summer enjoying the louder throb of the exhaust but still thinking it was lacking (my Heritage had a S/E stage II big bore kit with 255 cams).
I read and read and read some more. I sold a few rifles and took my RK to the same folks that sold me the RK for cams, pipe, tuner, and Dyno. Last Tuesday they installed Andrews 57H, V&H pro-pipe, SERT, and Dyno (91hp/101TQ).
While I've heard that the tune isn't the best, I feel like the RK is all that it should have been when I bought it. The power comes on early and stays much longer than I remember with my Heritage.
As of this writing I only have 100 mi with the new set up but I am very psyched. The exhaust burbles at idle and roars at 3500+. I really like the sound of the 2:1 vs the duals that were on it originally. Who knows, I may have it tuned again in the spring to see if I can get more out of it- for now, I'm going to ride my perfect RK.
