RE: Big Bore kit 'again'
What I have heard is other bikes that have the same as I do are running around 98 to 101 TQ @ 4000 rpm and 75 HP.
I don't know if I am dreaming or what but today I power shifted into 2nd and I think the front wheel came off the ground, it had no steering. The main thing I like is the amount of power I have just rolling on the throttle.

FYI...I did a stage 2 1550 kit with SE 203 cams and V&H slip on pipes on my new 2005 RK. I dynoed at 80hp and 90 ft. lbs. at the rear wheel. I was hoping for a little better...but still not too bad. Plus dynos all very some what in their readings. My 1999 RKC had just a BB 1550 with stock cams and Samson slip-ons...that bike dynoed at 74hp and 90 ft lbs.
I'm curious about your bike so I can get a level set on what others are getting.

RE: Big Bore kit 'again'
I am not sure when they will get the dyno running. Your bike is the same as mine except for the cam, I have the 204. I know the 204 is higher but you would not think 10 TQ.

I've got the factory installed 95 in w/203 cams, stage 1 air cleaner and Rinehart True Duals. I dyno'd at 80 hp and 87 ft lbs. I know people running the 103s that aren't getting 100 hp. It usually takes some high compression pistons and flowed heads to get that kinda power.
Good Luck

SE 103, with High Comp pistons, 260 gear driven cams and Rinehart true duals. dynoed this week 106 Hp and 109 Tq is where it ended up. Not to bad and for the guy who power shifted into second and pulled a wheelie that is a regular occurence for me. This big ole pig really scoots out and i couldnt be happier!

To get 100HP is VERY hard to do, 103 cu in only.

I don't know if I did a wheelie but it sure was fun having the front end that high on a full dressed hog.

RE: Big Bore kit 'again'
The bike is just more fun to drive now and get at least the same fuel economy or better. I am not hot rodding as much as I did before because the driveability is much more snapper and fun.

RE: Big Bore kit 'again'
It really makes my buddies heads turn when I crack this big ol Road Glide open and get a mini lift going they cant believe it. I highly recommend the High Comp pistons AND the 260 cam combo with the 103 I have no complaints so far.
