Default NEW '011 RKC - 110 Conversion Kit, Cams, Both?

I recently traded in my '02 Hertitage Softail for new '011 RoadKing Classic and couldn't be more pleased. I'm not a mechanic and would appreciate some guidance as I'm looking increase mid & high end torque and stay up with some friends with 110s. Any recommendations on just switching out the cams, installing the 110 conversion kit, both?

All you need is a good set of cams and maybe some mild head work. You can get over 105hp reliably this way.

110 ci requires a new crank among other things, big $$$.

the 103 is a great motor and will suck the headlight out of a stock cvo 110. if you choose to go to a 110, it is much more expensive because you have to split the cases. i'm really happy with the 103" motor in my bike. it runs very strong.

I just recently did a stage 2 103 build on my 09 RKC, SE 255 cams, SE high flow air cleaner and SE super tuner. I also added V&H power duals and V&H twin slash ovals. Super low end and mid range torq, dont now how i ever made it with the twin 88 that i traded in on this bike about a year ago.
