Tree man here. Hey John now you need a radar detector. Escort max 360c with a visual alert on your dashboard. It's going to be very difficult to obey the speed limit. Every time I ride my 2020 street glide special with the 131 I'm speeding/breaking the law. I'm still smiling everytime I ride. Great videos john.

[@michaelofiara9732]

Drag race between you. Big Guy. Paul and Sandy. A must.

[@barbercvo_19]

Don't for get about me and my cvo 117 stage 2 lol . I'll join that drag race

WOW John, very nice. Have to hear it in person. See you Sunday morning. Bikes and Breakfast

So happy for you!! Looks and sounds great! I’m from Michigan and have an appointment for a stage 2 build! Very excited!! Thanks for all your videos!!

excellent video. ..great bike....been saving for my 2019 street glide special for the 131 kit,reuse clutch,dark horse compensator,rekluse clutch slave cylinder and s&s camchest kit

[@Michaelchasejones]

That’s what I said about my big bore kit. It’s nowhere near overwhelming power. It feels like it should have came factory with that power.

[@ericroadglide9985]

Fantastic John. So how much does this full kit cost installed at cycleworks?? (Oops. I didn't see the end request not to ask but you really should say as it's apromo for cycleworks.) So a range of price if there are options. Thx

[@davidpeterson943]

Freaking sweet ride, loved this build series Thx Jon.

John your bike is performing like a Big Bore Harley Davidson should. Hats off to Dave for an amazing build. Enjoy your wonderful bike 👍🏾

[@bussah14]

That set up was one of my choices but I went with zippers 128 with a Thunder max tune on my 2018 CVO RD GLIDE

[@dannypierce3520]

I’m saving to do the Zippers 128… have 468 cam and Thundermax now. What’s your thoughts on your 128? Worth it?

Thanks for this video John! Sounds beast! Nice turnout at Bikes & Breakfast. 😎 I’m coming next Sunday too. 😃👍👍Goldwing Mike NY.

[@pabiker65ultra56]

Congratulations on the new build very awesome I have been thinking about checking out Dave at JD cycles as well I live a Carlisle Pennsylvania sold I'm not very far from their keep up all the good videos looking forward to more

[@patbramble8958]

Bro, what antenna do you have on that bike.

[@CYCLEFANATIX]

Lol I chopped it 👍

[@kawancraigstewart]

The torque is the more important number. That is what your feeling when you blip it and contributes to the smoothness because of your torque curve . HP is just a calculation of power. This is all true in accordance to a V twin now a sport bikes is a different story vs being over and under square engine

[@vernlochtefeld1626]

Both have their value some applications you want torque bias others horsepower bias. Torque is how much work it will do horsepower how fast it will do it or accelerate it. Both at any given rpm. If it doesn’t have enough torque to do the work or overcome the resistance say to move at a faster speed in a given gear it doesn’t matter how much HP you have. Conversely as long as you have enough torque to overcome the resistance required to move faster in a particular gear then only horsepower matters as to how fast it will accelerate it. My Harley is aftermarket geared low. In 5th gear it easily & rapidly pulls to just past peak horsepower at 6200 rpm at about 122 mph. In 6th gear it pulls hard to 140 mph then stops like it hit a wall at 5,800 why?.. Torque had dropped to where it was insufficient to do the work of overcoming the resistance of going faster.

[@diegoj.1501]

Is a beast 💪,Amazing job from dave ...congrats John

[@jamescruz7460]

Bike sounds and looks awesome John, enjoy the new ride.

[@robertdavis5495]

Great video, great bike, and the camera work is phenomenal!

[@robertspencer2917]

Thank you for sharing as I was watching the video that bike really squats when you get on it and the front forks extend out. Ride safe.

[@hectorsantiago321]

Nice to see the bike again.

Sounds great man 👍🏼🔥 Nice. Congrats man.

Looks like the front exhaust shield is wiggling around ...but very nice bike

[@christopherj9494]

Sounds awesome John! Congrats and thanks for sharing......... SO ...The front wheel comes up with ease I'm sure. :}

[@WTDOOR63]

I have all with the exception of the new clutch kit/ basket. I will replace the clutch in about a month. I do have SE heavy duty springs. My bike was tuned by the best in the west : Mickey Cohen Motorsports. My throttle responds the same way😎🤙🏾

[@cabby316]

The bike sounds awesome man, 😎😎😎

[@Twk888]

Hey what did you think of the Recluse clutch ? Give me your reviews ? Going into a roadglide 124 S&S kit

[@klinkharleyguy9383]

The bike came out amazing, Dave did a great job without a doubt. I'm seriously thinking of coming down to Nazareth in May since I'm only a couple hours away. Keep the throttle twisted and enjoy that beast.

[@auroracreative2731]

Great content but you should really check your audio settings...the audio is peaking badly...but keep up the videos...and the bike is sick

[@rhymeandreasoning]

I like those boots of yours.

[@davedarling2008]

So, with a stage II already being done, how much cost does it involve, doing the top end???

[@soldier09r]

Interested too!

[@harryhowell5644]

I hope the bike maintained some rideability and reliability. Traveling talls bike had issues.

[@kevincraig8257]

this isn't your Grandad's Harley Davidson anymore sounds so good I'll have to get one sometime for the roadglide

[@ashebarley77385]

Need to take that to Hampton’s design NC and get it painted

[@FLYANDRIDE15]

Looks and sounds great John! Congrats man and enjoy! Draggy video would be awesome(I was thinking that early on in the video and then you mentioned it. 😂).

[@capecodbiker9902]

How much do you think 128 kit out the door would be I called moonshine Harley they gave be a crazy price 11 grand witch doesn’t make sense to me a s and a kit is 3 grand for the whole kit. I e mailed Dave a couple times but no response must be balls to the wall with work 😂

[@MarColMar]

Interested in your MPG after the upgrade

[@cobaltt88]

You mean "Gallons per mile"the way he rides. LOL

[@billmart67]

My 128 gets around 36 mpg. Well worth the decrease in range. Now it’s “ smiles per gallon”!

[@stuartquirke7372]

Great videos

John. Some people don’t need that Horsepower Too much for them can’t handle it

[@scarsfrmgrindn8529]

I have a 2011 road glide ultra and its my first harley. I was wondering what a good kit to upgrade on a 103 ??

[@fourftr]

Happy for you Big John !! I got to make sure my wife doesn’t watch this video 😳😳

[@PIOTRMIK01]

The bike sound great

[@0351marinemike]

You going to wrap the tank and rear fender as well? Bike seems awesome... Going with stage 2 this year (wood 22XE cam, Jackpot Slip-ons, V&H power duals, Arlen Ness AC, Power Vision, and 2020+ oil pump), but next year, going to be eying a 128... Have to wait until I can afford all the supporting mods (heads, Throttle body, intake manifold, clutch, comp, transmission upgrade, injectors)... Hear 3rd gear is super weak and breaks easily (even on stock bikes). Want to be able to beef it all up at once.

[@bussah14]

Have you done the trans I went with the grudge box I also have the recluse clutch I will not switch to chain or crank until the original goes bad

[@bussah14]

Yes understood pick our poison 😂 power is crazy

[@Ray-pw3yh]

One the nighest bikes I’ve seen good stuff I grab a trask open glass derby also the muffler will turn colour again it’s the big motor lots of heat it happens with my 131 I replaced muffler twice. My friends bike does the same and he said wear it with a badge of honour for having a big motor lol

[@kevincraig8257]

did you have to do anything different with the clutch switch when you installed the levers ? I had to adjust farther out to get it the bike to start in gear

[@chriswatkins240]

What’s the out of door price on parts and build????

[@joshstucker4250]

Where is the love button

[@EddieFresh3]

2nd question, how's the bike on an cold start. Heard the higher compression makes it more rough.

Good sounding bike.... Ride safe... whats your fuel mileage..... stage 2 here... i can squeeze about 200... maybe 225... pending on how i ride... or 2 up.... on 5 to 5.5 gallons... premium 93 octane... just curious... Thanks
