Default Very Happy
Today was the first day that I have been able to take the RK out for a nice ride since having the 95" upgrade done.

All that I can say is wow I am very pleased with the power boost. When shifting into 2nd, is when I can really tell the most. The 100 TQ is night and day compared to what I had.

So far I have been very easy on the bike allowing it to break in, cant wait till I let it rip to see what it really has.

All in all...I am very happy.

Mike,

My bro-in-law has a 95" kit in his RG...he walks away from my stock 88" on the highway. Maybe someday I'll quit buying chrome and work on the motor.

Ride safe.
