Default Question on 103 Kit special

Local dealer is offering a 103 kit installed for $850. Doesn't include ECM calibration or primary gasket.

Is that a good deal?

If that is a complete install with no hidden costs, it's a steal. The cheapest I have seen was $1300. The download is not a big deal, shouldn't be more than $100-200

Wow! Hell of a deal! My bike came 103 from the factory and that is such a good deal I may have it installed!

Seriously, You sure that's everything?

If that's their complete Stage II kit that's a very good price. Pretty much almost free labor. The SE 103 Stage II Pro kit is 799.95. So yes, if that's indeed the case, very good deal.

It is just this kit 27539-08A KIT-STAGE 1,1690 ST LGL,BLK/FLT.

No cams. I see this kit sells for $559 from Surdyke.

Not as good as it sounded I guess. Sorry for being an HD noob and not researching BEFORE posting.

+1...you'll really need a set of cams in order to reap the benefits of the larger displacement.
