2000 miles and I think I am ready to do a few mods to the 09 SEUC and have been searching for the best pipe, software, breather and cams to do this with.
Just found this website for Woods Performance and would really like for my bike to produce these numbers.

Does anyone have any FIRST HAND experience with this group?
If you have your own setup that you would recommend I would really appreciate you posting your mods and Dyno sheets.
Thanks
Do your homework and find a GOOD builder that knows these things. Otherwise you'll go down the road like some of us throwing good money after bad at it! ;)

This with just set of gear drives, exact cam escapes me atm, and R&R stage 4 head work. Power Commander, AC, and pipes of course too. How the lower end will hold up is yet to be seen. But there is power there if you go looking for it.
I have upgraded the 88 CI on my 99 RK, then I put in a 95 CI in and when that was not enough, I went to a Zippers 107 CI and a lower compensator sprocket, Baker 6 speed with customized gears for that setup, by then I was having reliability issues so I eventually sold it.
This is my second CVO and it does not seem to be has strong as the 103 ci on my 05 SEEG. But if I can get by with a little head work, cams, pipes, software, or replace the ecm and a breather.... thats what I want to do.
I really like the way that engine made its torque (flat and early) and horsepower grows all the way to 5500 rpms.
I don't have a dollar figure in mind but will consider listening with an open mind, if you will suggest a setup.
I am not "the mad man, red light racer" any more but on an empty back road I like to hit it,with my riding buddies, and the rest of the time we are two up and of course loaded down.
Right now its just seems chocked down so bad, and I want to open it up asap but I would like to see what's out there and what's working. I do not want heavy top end noise either.
I hear the Wood components are good. Where is your shop?

My biggest and really only frustration with this bike,,,is the slow revs and the throttle response. I have to do this now!! I have actually almost made a couple of mistakes pulling out in front of traffic, hitting the gas and it just bogs down for a second, and I have to clutch it and back of the throttle and re-gas it in order for the motor to rev. Probably more my riding style and what I am use to with my past bikes then this bike. I have corrected this by reving the motor a lot more and then slipping the clutch a lot more and for a lot longer than I am used to.
I have to admit I expected a lot more low end torque and much better throtle responce from a 110!
Question from the above info. I have an 09 SE Ultra. I have the Fullsac 2.25", Zipper Maxflo air cleaner, and Super SERT. If I put in the Wood cam TW7H, would I have to change exhaust? Need to? No. Will it perfrom better, Yes
would I need to go to a larger throttle body?Need to? No. Will it perfrom better, Yes especially on top
would I get a noticeable gain? Yes
would I need to do anything else? Yes, A dyno tune (preferable not from the dealer that told you the cam won't make a difference
I'd be willing to go to the D&D Fatcat, but I don't see a listing for one for the 09's. They do not list one for an 09, I have not installed one on an 09 yet myself but I know of two people that have
I spoke to a service manager at a Harley dealer last week and he told me that I was wasting my money by just putting a different cam in. He said that I wouldn't notice a difference.I would go to another shop that knows about performance

Thanks for the advice...
Its the way I am going to go.... I was already leaning towards the D&D, cause thats what I had on my RK. (The 107 Zippers never hit the big numbers until we changed the carb and added the Fat Cats.)
Have you all installed, any with this set up, and if so, have you Dynoed any? Would really feel more comfortable to see actual numbers, first. I have read a ton on tuners,,,, what advice, on this subject if any, do you have? Or point me to a post if you know of one.
I have decided to "only" do these changes for now due to warranty and it will give me something to look forward to later.

(yet)
This something you're working toward Jim?
Have been for a while, it only takes money and shop space (two things I do not have enough of, yet ;D)
The throttle lag that you are experiencing may me due to the TBW, As HDFR120 stated the 110's do have decent torque down low. They just fall on their face really early.
Here is what what I have in an 08 SERK, maybe this will help. would also like comments from others as well....thanks!
I also have the SE Heavy Breather on it too.
