You could probably save a little money and just have him do your heads and a cam etc, upgrade your 95. Can 3 cubes make all that much of a difference? Or like someone mentioned above, go SE120 and sell your 95. That 120 has to be one of the most cost effective, dollar for dollar, options out there these days. Especially when you can sell your original motor.

Believe me if I had the money back that I put into this motor already you bet I would go with the 120r. The way I see it is I'm so far into this bike whats a little more money. One thing I know for sure I'm not spending another dime on motor chit lol...I'm excited as all heck to get this going. Worried to death something is going to break though. Chris told me not to worry though because he stands behind his work. That says alot about a guy right there...

Im in the same boat as you so I feel your pain. I have a 95" in my 04 that does decent 92/96, but I want more. I talked to Scott @ Hillside and same thing said redo heads, maybe differnt came stuff like that and get a little more. I just dont know if its worth it. Really thinking about the se 120r and trying to sell my 95 for cheap to recoup some of my money quickly. Whatever you decide Im sure you will be happy, your right this motor chit is expensive!
On a side note I remember some of your old post about your first build. Are you happy with there work, I thought that you were doing a more hot set up for like 110/110 numbers.

Jack- The Binford build had me spooked...Way to many varibles. Don't get me wrong Paul is a great guy and builder but the build was to funky for me. I like to look at the facts and what I can depend on. That build was like playing Russian Roulette. Could of worked good or went really stinken bad. I had Binforn do my bags and paint instead. By the way Paul wanted like 5000.00
