MOTO Michael has the 107" RevPerf kit in his bike and it runs cool and runs great!  Several others non-members in the Bay Area that I know are running the 107 kits as well.  Great motor!

I replaced my stock cylinders with RP ones (no liners). Haven't had anymore head gasket problems. This was on an 07 SE Ultra.

I wasn't happy with a Rev Perf  98" kit in my twin cam. The nikasil lined cylinders failed before 5K miles.

if you really want to know about revperf cylinders/pistons/rings, go to v-twin forum and do a search...3 years ago nikasil was all the rage, and some people had failures, now very few folks use it
