I finally had the opportunity to get out and really take a ride on my recent 107 winter build. It is a FuelMoto 107 "kit" with 10.25 slugs and FM B heads. I had done the Wood's TW-555 cams last fall.
All I can say is I can't wait to tune this thing. It really rips. I'm still being nice to it for a hundred miles or so but twisting that throttle is REALLY fun.
Thanks to FuelMoto and wurk_truk for helping to diagnose crossed O2 sensors. That really gave me some heartburn. Fyi. My scoot has grey connector in back and black in front and I had the back grey connector to the rear cylinder. NFG. Rear cylinder O2 sensor is black connector. Period.
Anyway just thought I'd thank those guys and make y'all a bit jealous.... I'm thinking a trip to a dyno is in order to get the most out of this. I'll post a sheet when I do.

Took mine "back" to Fuel Moto about 10 days ago. I had them do a complete build 2 years ago. Revolution did the crank, and bearing upgrade, did the 107 with level A heads, and 555 cams. They are now doing the level B heads, and going with the Woods TW8-6 cams! Also swapped my exhaust from the Sinister "Up-Yours" to a D&D Fatcat, and ditching the PCV for the Power Vision. Jamie told me it will be 120+HP, and 120+TQ at the wheel when I get it back! I can't freaking wait!! It would not be taking so long if I didn't have my heads diamond cut... but the weather in Illinois has not really been great just yet anyway. Once you get yours tuned... you will love it even more!

Just got off the phone with Brian. My 107 with 555 cams and Level B heads will be in my hot little hands by the end of next week. I'm pretty sure this will turn the trike into a much more fun ride.

Why did you go with the Tw8-6 over the 888's or even 777's? Not to family I err with the 8-6 cams.

These bikes don't need much in the way of drivetrain upgrades other than a clutch.
If you are abusive and want to do burnouts and wheelies, then a billet clutch basket and chain drive conversion are advisable. Here's what happens with a Primo Rivera Pro Clutch, a 124" and an abusive rider with a stock basket. It does have a chain conversion. After we replaced the clutch assembly, nothing else has failed, even with countless hole-shots, burnouts and wheelies:

I told Jamie where I wanted to be for HP & TQ... and early in the powerband... I also told him I wanted Cams that would "thump" and this is what he thought would be the best choice for this build... I trust in him as he knows about a billion times more than I do about this stuff lol
