Talking Fuel moto bound!!

Please tell me I’m going to not have buyers remorse, for plopping down a small fortune on a big bore 107” and level “B” heads. I’m going with the Woods 999-6a’s and extreme duty cylinders. I really like the looks of the dyno chart. Anyone have experience with this upgrade? Do you wish you would have done anything else? Anything different? 110” instead? I want the best of all worlds; a reliable beast! That’s why I chose the 107” instead of the 110” I know Bob doesn’t get on here too much, but he’s always been courteous and patient with me. Often talking me out of buying something that would, essentially, be pouring money down the drain. This is why I’m willing to ride from Maryland to Wisconsin to have them install it. Simply put, I trust them. I’m scheduled for install, May 11th. Wish me luck with the weather. Anyway, here’s the chart I like!


this would be the exact configuration I will have, minus the Powervision I have a Thundermax and I have a 2015. I have the 222’s now, and love them, but I’m addicted, like the rest of you poor lost souls

My guess is you will love it. Can they get the same tune with the Thundermax? Don't know is why Im asking. As always, the tune is the key to bringing it all together.
Im guessing they will break it in on the dyno also? If so, great.
You will enjoy the hell out of it

I guess I wasn’t complete in my query. I’ve got a great tune, cams, exhaust and intake. In short, it runs fantastic as it is now. More importantly, it is, and has been, very reliable, for more than 30k miles. I just thought you could read minds

I imagine the tune will probably be a bit better because of the wide band O2 sensors, but Bob said then can in any case.

I have the exact build as the chart. I really like it, its deceivingly quick. Really smooth but all of a sudden you are coming up on 100 mph. I have over 22k on the build and absolutely no issues just change the oil regularly. It has truly been a dependable rider that if you choose to you can smoke the tires off it or just take a leisurely ride. Best of both worlds!
