Default Hello

Hello all,

I live in Tampere, Finland and drive a 2008 RK Classic FLHRC, California model with SE intake filter and baffles. As I ride a lot two-up, I gotta get the engine beefed up. I am considering options up to getting the new 120R SE engine.
The other option would be to get new cams and the race tuner but as the exhaust is California street legal and not strictly required here where I live, I am wondering should I changes the pipes & headers or only headers

Welcome to the forum.. come on over to the Touring forum and ask this question. You'll get lots of opinions. Quick Answer is if you go 120R replace the entire intake and exhaust with something that can breath.
