I was about to say the same thing. Not that the 103 is a dog of a motor, but after spending that much on suspension and brakes I'm surprised money went to fancy rocker box covers and carbon fender, but not cams and head work. I'm sure a talented rider can flog this and pull away from me, because of the handling but ?!?!? STOCK 103 w/ filter and exhaust doesn't spell performance in my book
Heres some pics of the swingarm and brake setup on my 06. Shame the bags cover it up.
I'd like to know more about your build and experience with this one if you have the time to go through it. There's a lot of trick parts and details I can see. Also as an 06 I'm guessing you've put some miles on the build. What's the best stuff, is there anything you wouldn't recommend etc.

Most likely ran out of money or realized its too much money for such a small return. That front end is like 3/4th the price of a s&s crate. Performance baggers are awesome but you have to realize that its still a 900 lb hog
Got rid of the tri bar mullet light and added 13 shocks. Light didnt look right with the shorty exhaust. Hard wired it out and cut it off, no going back.
13 shocks are a dream. Going to be lots of my new rear galfer rotor visible.
