I was planning to get rid of my CVO but now I might have to keep it. This looks like a good alternative. From what I can see it bumps HP from 75ish to 105ish at 5K rpm. (TQ from 90 to 110ish at 4K ish. $3,500 installed and dyno out the door.

Should see more than that

Good answer!  But that part about "didn't give up on them;" not quite correct, eh?

I guess I meant I didn't give up on the rest of the bike. After it being in the shop roughly nine weeks of each of the first four years I temporarily gave up on the motor but I did keep it just in case one day I might rebuild it again. It has taken a few years for all the indy's  to figure out the changes to make them more reliable. As in lifters, head springs, better valve guides and seals,etc.etc. etc. I say Indy's because the Dealers aren't on the same page as the Independants out there. I feel the Indy's care more about giving the end user better service and quality of work. Well I guess I mean the ones that chime in on our threads here.

117 motor is in but the tech says I have to run 500 mile break in before he will dyno tune. I can't go over 3800 rpm, either. Did 200 miles today. Will do 300 tomorrow. Dyno Monday. More later.

Just wondering what you were not happy about that you felt the need to upgrade to 117?

Don't have to be unhappy to upgrade

They should have broke it in on the dyno while dialing it in know ?

I never understood the thinking that running an untuned engine for 500 miles is good for break in.

So, will you be going with the Jim’s “117” Derby and timing covers? 

Also, I know they'll be naysayers, but in my opinion, I wouldn't want my bike ran on a dyno with new cams/lifters, cylinders, and pistons either.  I am assuming you are not using break-in oil of any kind.

Anxious, to see your before and after results, because I am about to order the 92500050 kit as well.  New Castle Harley indicated they are readily available for now.

You should have a look at how the MOCO starts and runs their new motors.
One big difference too these new bigger motors will be started with fuel calibrations that are a country mile off or in the case of the " street legal" version that will receive no changes. And that said with this flash canned map is the combination of parts including and especially important the pipe what the MOCO prescribed in the recipe?
I would have nothing less than and insist on a heat and Afr corrected dyno run of my new motor and refuse any canned map.

Has anyone seen this?

It's what I did for my 88"/95"  build. 22,000+ miles. No problems. No oil used between changes.

Break in with dinosaur oil and drive it like it's a rental.

Well congratulations I'm very interested  in the results 
And the butt dyno as well  love to hear video sound clip of idle etc
