Considering a 103 build on my 07 RKC. Those of you who have done it, did you leave the case in the bike, or go ahead an pull the whole motor? Shop manual seems to indicate motor removal. Trying to decide whether to do cams and leave it or take the BB plunge. Definately leaning 103 though. Thanks!

 

No need to pull it just do the top end in the bike 8-10 hrs work w/cams and all the right tools.

 

No engine removal required as stated above. It really is a pretty straight forward easy job although it does requirea few special tools, nothing expensive though.......

 

Can definitely do it without pulling the engine, not hard and minimum of mechanical ability needed as long as you have the service manual and can follow directions!

 

Thanks guys. I think the 103 is the way to go for me. I am a mechanical junky, like to do things myself and tinker. And as I tell my wife, the perfect torque and HP is always 10 more than what you got!

 

Mine is still in da shop waiting on the diamond cut. They left it in the bike when they are doing mine.
