That looks pretty nice for a 107 motor Steve.  Good torque.

Made some progress with the exhaust.  :2vrolijk_21:

I love how quiet :) the motor is. pulls good for a stock motor. I do miss a little more note from after market pipes. Clutch lets out a little toward the end for my liking but I will get used to it. my only gripe is the dummy plug on top the trans keeps leaking. been leaking since new. been in twice and still leaks. but on the bright side the lemon law will kick in here soon and I will get a new one. LOL :)

Absolutely love my CVO 114 !!  Simply an amazing bike. The clutch is the only negative, operates at nearly full extend with 3/4 inch operating range. Horrible.
Motor is brilliant but I'm going the stage 4 kit shortly.

I'm going to look into removing material from the lever at the plunger contact to bring it back a little. A friend of mine actually bent his lever slightly close to the pivot. I'm not that brave, mine would snap off!

If you do, would you please post pics?  Have gotten used to the clutch, but an improvement on pull/engage would be nice.

I'm not that brave either ! I'm in discussions with Oberon levers UK to get some adjustable levers. They want me to remove mine off my bike and send them pics ! Seriously if someone comes up with a direct replacement set of adjustable leavers they will absolutely clean up !

I don't want to hijack this thread but I've cut a few hydraulic clutch levers to move the engagement point closer to the bars. I'll shoot you an email later today and show you what's worked for me.

Sounds good!

Just coincidentally, my helper Bill just came back from a used parts run in Phoenix with a pile of warranty clutch cylinders assemblies from the 2014 recall. Apparently they were replacing the entire handlebar control as a unit. If that's the same clutch lever, I have more than a few to play with. :2vrolijk_21:

Speaking from experience, the levers are different on the 17s.
