Just ordered my 107 kit
Super excited I just ordered fuel Moto 107 kit with level B heads. I currently have woods 555 cams and I decided to up grade to 777 cams. This is going in a 2009 road glide. For those who have already done this do you have any suggestions?
I already have a SE heavy clutch spring, and VH power duels with monster rounds. I do have a set of riehnhart mufflers I could use too. I know the riehnharts are better flowing then the VH mufflers.
Can't wait to get it put back together and try it out.

You will love it, i just got mine back this week. I added the AIM clutch piece and ended up dropping the cash for the Jackpot 2 into 1 pipe. I think i love the pipe more then anything sound and quality of the pipe is second to none. My bike really feels alive now. The power is perfect. They sent me a map that was pretty close and after one auto tune session i am already happy. I will auto tune again when its broken in, but thinking i am not going to dyno. Although i posted another thread wondering what peoples fuel mileage is, because my first tank of gas was low. But i was auto tuning and back and forth on the throttle for the full hour.

OP: I have the exact set up that you'll have, and I too went on the cheap on bought the heavy duty spring. I FULLY endorse what Bates posted above. Within three months the increased tension broke my clutch cable, and caused extensive wear in the clutch lever area.
Do yourself a favor.....make an ash tray out of that heavy duty spring, and install a VPC. Thank both of us later!

I didn't when I did mine. the heavier spring really made it a bear to do 'friction zone' clutching. I know a couple of folks have also noticed increased wear in other areas (clutch perch, cable, etc) from the increased effort needed. I didn't notice any, but I changed mine out to the vpc after only a couple of months.

With an 09 you'll need a heavier spring. The stock spring is too soft even with a Vpc. Get a 340lb aim spring, it's lighter than a se spring and with the Vpc it'll hold almost anything you'll throw at it. It pulls pretty easy.
