Unless you are gonna be running a lot of high rpm's the 255's are the way to go. More umphh in the rpm ranges that most folks do in normal street riding. The 255's really pull and also really great for two up riding.

Just picked it up today from the dealer I wish I could figure out how to post my dyno chart. Anyway 103tq 105hp torque is at 100+ from 2200 - 5200rpm. What a fun bike to ride.

With no head work? I have seen similar torque numbers stock but never over low 90'sbid for HP. If you have a digital camera you can take photo and post

2012 road king with rienhart true duals 3.5, bigger sucker air cleaner and 254 E cams. I hated the 7.6 mile ride home before i called the dealer and told them to pick it up and make the swap. Now i love it. Plenty of everyday roll on power but she has alot more if you want it. It pulls like a freight train. My dealer did the work so my warrenty is still good. Had to make sure with the dealer though.
