As a side note, I just sold my 07 and will be picking up a Cherry and Merlot Limited next week. Great colors !
You sold the hot rod bagger?

Gonna build a big incher for the limited?

Yep...My 07, well now it is his 07, is on the way to North Dakota.

Not gonna build a 120 as I have really looked back at the money dumped into the bike, specifically the engine and I never fully utilized all that power, but it was fun to ride. This one will be a budget build, Heads, Cams, AC, exhaust and TTS....and go riding !

I just got back from a ride and had a blast dragging the floorboards in the canyons and generally hotdoggin, I agree with Dalton , 103", heads, cams, ac, exhaust, tuner. No problems and my brakes got a workout, more power would have just taken away from the fun and added what I don't want to do, make the ride on the edge
