What's a DD6? 6spd tranny?

How come you're waiting on those parts, backordered?

DD6 is a Baker Direct Drive 6 speed.

Steve is working my heads and the cams are on order. Everything else is sitting here in front of me.

Where are you located? My buddy came out today, just got his 103" in his SG. Was 35 out but he had to go for a spin here in NH.

As I understand it, the Revolution and GMR kits are the same done by R&R here in Manchester. Either way I'm sure we'll both be happy!

I'm in Maryland, was bout forty today, would have rode for hours, just wasnn't dressed for it. I can also tell ya that the Rienheart TD's are too loud now. Someone elese on this forum said that they would and I thought, yea right. How much louder could they be? I've got a pair of the quit baffles on the way. LOL
Whole bike seems a diferent animal now, bit of a lope in the idle, throttle respose is awsome, can't wait to just crank into it.

Which kit did you do, the Power Pack I or II? I would have guessed with the headwork and cam that exhaust would really bark....a bit too much for me too I think. You'll pobably gain a few extra ponies with the quiet exhaust too I bet.

Here's a question my buddy asked me the other day and I haven't really seen anyone post about it.

Are you guys with the higher CPR kits on the 98" motors having any starting issues with the stock starter?

When telling my buddy about the kit he asked if I'd have to get a heavy duty starter or if the stock starter would die quicker? Bryan, Phil?

They have mentioned in the past, I believe that both do not have any issues starting. No compression releases are needed. Bryan has said that his cam allows him to turn over easily.

I'm sure they'll tell you more.
