The SG is one nice SOB... just add the usual STG1 and cams with V&H's power duels with some pipes and Ur set for a long time..

Son just did the PD's, SEST tuner, Rush 2", and S&S 551's and loves it.... pulls from idle to 5.2k like a freight train....and has a great area under the curve...TQ never below 80 and max's 95 on a SAE 4gear pull on the dyno with tuner sitting on the bike.

Welcome to the Forum from a fellow SG owner from Indy! When not riding, it's a great place to spend some time.
