fjoh, you won't be able to wipe the grin off your face, after you ride that bad boy home ! I have spoken to Steve on the phone, and he's a really great guy. I only wish I lived a little further south, like 2,500 miles lol...You'll be very happy with the build, as many here are with his work. Enjoy...

I heard from fjoh since the 107" install at GMR and he posted the results in the "dyno numbers" thread. He went from 70hp/88tq to 110 hp / 120 tq and loves it. GMR is doing my 107 this week. Right now I have a Stage 1 with V&H Power Duals, SE tuner and a dyno tune. I am looking forward to the results.

I had my 107 done by Scott and his crew at Hillside.. then put away the bike for the winter.... I haven't been able to take it for a spin yet, needs a dyno tune with my PV in spring but I can say.... its way LOUDER and RUMBLES like a hot rod !!!!!... with just a FM canned map, almost 108HP@122tq... I can't imagine after dyno tune what it will pull !!!

Charlie Fogg,
So he is building you a motor, ya?
You will be happy when it's done! I cannot stop thinking "why the hell I waited do long to do it??"
It's been so much more fun to ride than stage 1 (96")
I'm still riding to work everyday in norther AZ.
It gets down into low-mid 20's on my way home from work, but I just wanna keep riding till the road is covered with snow/ice. Ya, it's THAT MUCH MORE FUN TO RIDE!
For those of you thinking about 107, do it ASAP!!!

One thing I forgot to mention is the great passing power.
I do a lot of freeway riding on I-17 between Phoenix n flagstaff. Flagstaff is 7,000ft. There's quite a bit of steep ups n downs and many curves on I-17. When it was 96", I used to down **** in the steep climb but now I don't need to.
Not only that, it accelerates effortlessly with a little bit of twist of the throttle. If I'm on the flat going 70mph passing up a big rig, by the time I reach the front end if the truck, I'm doing 85+mph and it wants to keep going faster n faster until I let go of gas. It's just so nice to have the power/torque!

Yes Sir he is. I'm dropping it off this morning. I expect I will be as happy as you when I pick it up!
