Brighteyes4406 are you from the area here? I am in Neenah... Just wondering... OK that is what I thought, I have his stage one and jackpots on my bike now. I thought this upgrade would be worth it and now reading the posts I know it's a good decision. I'll get back in touch with Jamie and schedule some time to get it in... I would love to have somebody make me a custom air cleaner cover that had the HD Logo with the 107 in the center...? Anybody??
How about a Fuel Moto logo and 107" in the center. I would like a point cover. I've bugged Jamie a little and know he's working on it.
Did any of you guys do manual compression releases or if not wish you'd done them after the fact? Thinking about this build too.
I didn't use the fuel moto kit, but I built a 107 this year on my bike, using a similar approach. Ported heads, Woods tw8 cams, 10.75 pistons, SE throttle body. I've got ACRs in my bike, and at stage II 103 or above, I think some form of compression release is pretty much mandatory.
I had Fuel Moto install their FM107 kit in my bike over the winter. I did the 555 cams with no head work. I wound up with 106hp/121 ft-lbs. It's an absolute monster! Oh...and I'm knocking down low 40s for gas milage.
You should also know that while the bike is fast it is also completely rideable and has perfect street manners. I had my GF on the back for a few hundred miles and she never knew she was sitting on top of a complete fire breather.
Is the $1995 price tag worth it....YES!
Would I do it again....YES!
One thing I forgot to ask. For those of you that did the upgrade, did it make your bike a lot louder. I really like how mine sounds with the jackpots and dont want it much louder...!
Hey guys I really want to have this 107" big bore kit done by fuel moto as well. The local bike shops around me don't recommend them and with that being said I don't want them doing the work. I live in northwest florida and was curious as to if there is any places around me within few hundred miles to get a kit like this or have them install and tune fuel moto's kit. Thanks

Good luck
Did the exact same build in March and it was the best money I've ever spent on a bike. Thinking about heads this fall, but seriously, don't really need to, plenty of power as is. That 120+ TQ just feels soooooooooo good! It's nice to live close to Jamie, hehe! Definitely hit it on the head with the street manners, too, my girl and I both think it's actually much smoother than it was before. I went the other way with the advertising, though, put on the billet air cleaner cover from FuelMoto and dumped the 103" derby cover, went to plain chrome.
