put my RG in the shop for HQs 107, previously had a SG with HQs 103 --- met Kevin at the Stn Mtn HD today -- extremely nice guy -- he will oversee the build -- if Kevin was not involved I don't know if I would have trusted them with building the motor (although I have never ever had a problem with Stn Mtn HD) it will be done by Saturday -- have the HQs auto tune do dad to cut down on Dyno time.
It should run a little stronger and faster than the 103.
Also met Brian Klock and his lovely wife at Granite Mtn HD; he is also a nice personal guy -- still waiting on my T-Shirt he promised me.
I'm sure the bike will run -- two of my club brother's have 113's I'll run against there builds next week
Congrats...I was a little confused when I saw your post for I did think you had a HQ103...a new sled and a HQ107...slow down your making it hard on us to keep up w/ the Jones's
Ultra61, decided to do looks and comfort first, will do the 103 this winter or spring ( I live in Fla so I will wait for my winter which is rainy season to do the motor), right now getting the looks right and fit perfect.

Lynn, congrats on the new bike and build. I'm hoping I can get over to Stone Mountain HD and meet you, see the build in progress and snap a few pics. I know Kevin is looking forward to doing this for you and as a training program for the tech who will be doing the HQ builds at the dealership and training the dyno tech on how to tune them.
Hey Lyn - I'll be waiting anxiously for your results. My heads and cylinders are at HQ right now. Waiting on a call from Doug to go over the details. I'm still on the fence about the 103 or 107. Need to talk with him before pulling the trigger.
Yours may be done before I hear from him. Not sure what his lead time is right now, but I'm sure he's busy. Please let me know what you end up with.
Zach
P.S. Missed where you got rid of the bat wing. Couldn't get used to the paint? Any rate - Welcome to the dark side. It's nice.
Zach, as much as everyone liked the paint on the SG -- I tried and tried to make myself like it but I could'nt -- it was like having a girlfriend that everbody thinks is hot but you --- everytime I went to the garage I was trying to decide what to do with the paint after I talked to several painters decided it would be better just to start over and I always wanted a RG.
Carl, Please get up to Stn Mtn HD and make sure Kevin is working (LOL)
I wish I could have afforded to do the 120, Darkhorse bottom end was cost prohibted -- but I would not be comfortable doing it anyother way - but my better sane half has limits to how much I can spend on toys and still be married to her.
I'll going to run it against my club brothers bikes next week (two 113's three or four 95's) and see how it goes --- I'll post a dyno sheet and real world experience next week.
