Default Good Deal?

I got a quote from the dealer for a 103 kit
I am thinking about the 103 Stg III
I already have the SERT
Kit comes with 251 cams and everything else
Labor included and dyno after the breaking $2400
Any thoughts
Thanks

I talked with my dealer about doing the same on my 09 when it comes in prior to delivery for warranty reasons. The kit ( i forget the part # ) is 899 or 849 in the 09 catelog with the 255 cams. The dealer told me without an exhaust and tuner it was 1799. If I bought a tuner and exhaust it was 1499. That was with labor, dyno, and all testing and tuner setup included.

Food for thought.

The things that can be done to these bikes is mind numing. What is the best bang for the buck for a little more power - fuel management (that is pipes, hi flow a/c, PC V) big bore or something else?

Probably the best bang for the buck, without any reliability issues is A/C, Slip-ons, and some sort of fuel-management like a Race Tuner or Dyno Jet.

What is a reasonable amount of hours of labor for install of a 103 kit?

The kit is PART # 27514-08 is $1499.00
I have the SERT so they are giving me credit off of the kit
which brings it down to 1201.00 plus labor and the custom fuel map which is $276
What other kind of deals are out there
I already have AC and V&H 2 into 1

Just looking for a little bit more
