Default Introduction

My 2011 Dark/Light Candy Root Beer "Ultra" that looks like a street glide Purchased new with 1 mile. rode 45000 miles on a stock motor with slip ons and an air filter upgrade. tried a few sets of cams that woke her up some. Pulled motor at 45k and balanced and trued the crank. H beams and a 107 kit with Woods 7H cams and stage two head porting with oversized valves, S and S oil pump. 120 torque and 108 hp I also lowered the bike one inch. Progressive fork inserts and Super shox coil overs in the back. 2017 Road Glide rear fender and front wheel. I have done extensive black powder coating as well. Thanks for having me on the board
