Twolane, what setup are you going to end up with? I am looking for low and mid, and again I am willing to change exhaust, but do want to keep the noise down. Yes, that flag went up when he said that this package would work with stock exhaust. Thats why I'm typing. Thanx guys.
Far, I'm really not doing anything even close to dramatic. This bike just needs to travel and I've (pretty much) outgrown the urge to do wheelies. So it's just a stock 103.
It has had the standard air cleaner and exhaust changes on it from almost day one. I'll now do the gear drive swap to eliminate the all too common problem of the tensioners. Just to make it more reliable. I love that the new cams will add a small bit of performance and move that performance band down where I ride better. But the performance gains are gravy. The swap to gear drive is just making the engine as reliable now as Harley should have before they sold it to me.
While it's all apart it's hard to justify not also doing the better oil pump at the same time. The lifters and whatever pushrod choice gets made are more iffy. Even though rollers don't care what cam they are on and wouldn't have to be changed with the cam swap they are inexpensive enough it's hard to justify not doing them at the same time too.
