Default Wow. FuelMoto 107!!

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.

DId you have to beef up the primary chain, clutch, transmission and belt drive system to handle this?

Enjoy your new build. Did your build use the FM IC cylinder heads?

Not sure what 12hdrk did, but for mine, Primary chain no, belt drive no, clutch - went to the heavier Barnett clutch spring. I wasn't getting any slipping using the stock spring, but didn't want to take the chance.

No modifications to the drivetrain yet, but I think ill need a heavier clutch spring just feeling the torque that is here now.

I used my stock 103 jugs and had FM bore them. I don't think there will be any issue there. That said, if I had unlimited funds I would have gone with th IC cylinders. There's always the 117 to look forward to.

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:
