Think you drew in every needy person.. Think idea is maybe should have waited till motor was broke in.?. Had tack or rev limiter set.?. Safe road or track? Engine Noise and guy going wow fast. Just fired up the kids in peanut gallery . I was very interested in your findings.. Feels like owner of the bike or something held you back? Like you had make good on promise,?? I don't know?? Maybe I'm having bad day.. My sport. I road trip 6 states . Has more dirt roads trails and gravel than many duel sports. Given other miles of fun becsuse its not new 4cly shaft drive. That sounds like IndyCar winding up..Have one those also.. Hope I helped more than hurt?

Why is someone willing to lose 10whp for a shitty exhaust You know how much of a difference that is? Put the right exhaust on it and make the power it was designed for YOUR THE SLIPPER CLUTCH don’t blame the clutch for your poor rev matching

When the 1989 Mustang came out, I owned a 1966 Mustang with a 5.8l Windsor shoved into it. 3:55 locker out the back, and no way could I find traction even with ladders on.

[@frederickking1660]

In 1986 a mustang gt cost 12,600.00 brand new. A couple with lx package was 10,500.00. Might as well have been 100,000.00 minimum wage was 3.65 an hour.

Dude it's crazy as hell seeing Spite ride down Riverside. When I lived off that street I was in college riding my BMX bike everywhere, had no clue that someday I would get into motorcycles and one of my new favorite KZbinrs would be cruising on it.

[@davidgarris5440]

I have a Buell xb with the 1250 kit and I totally agree with you on the exhaust. The muffler is a modified glass pack with 2 exits, 1 pointing left and 1 right. Maybe I'm losing a touch but its so fast already who cares. That sound... I call it the Ric Flair machine cause after you ride it you wanna go "woo" at the top of your lungs. Or at least I do and I paid for it so... Lol

[@super16g123]

Make sure your belt tension isn't too tight. Recommend setting turned out to be too tight with taller shocks. When the swingarms would move through their range of motion, they would bind up at their farthest point from the front belt pulley. Makes the bike feel unsettled and wobbly.

[@nbowling10trio]

I'm sure it feels good running it to redline, even my 883 feels good running out to redline. I have the dyna2000i set at 6k. I have the basic hammer 1275 kit that I haven't installed yet. Only put the ignition in and made sure it's running good, gonna put cylinders on this weekend

[@grantbierlmeier7641]

For me it’s the process of doing the work yourself and making it yours. Is it now a super bike? No of course not. But that was never the point was it? I like it a lot.

[@sl4305]

Probably mentioned earlier but the wobble is most likely due to the suspension. The bike would feel much better If you got progressive shocks and front cartridge tubes with larger diameter tubes with a Wider triple.tree. The stock brakes suck on the sportster. got to love the raw feel of the power on a small bike

[@ellingtonpeacock1646]

I can't lie the new engine makes the sporty a lot more endearing.

[@jonnymac8925]

Rev that puppy out to 6800-7000 man, you are just coming into the power when you shift it! A 90+hp Sportster is a ripper! Was there headwork done, or just upgraded to 1200 heads?

[@greggtanner7742]

Sure I heard head work.. But if you did not hear it?? Maybe not..

[@christianbutcher542]

Watching the video of the build I didn’t see them do anything to the heads.. prolly stock cams. Still making about 85hp. Definitely a ripper

[@jonnymac8925]

@@christianbutcher542 I had to rewatch the video, but he states they did send the heads to Hammer Performance for headwork, and that they are running Hammer cams, and it made 90whp with the setup they went with. I have a 1250cc Sportster that makes about the same (95hp) and its an absolute blast. I'm guessing the exhaust is holding it back, much like my exhaust is on my setup!

[@MrGibsonguy335]

You are starting out with the RIGHT idea. Pre-rubber mount bikes are 100 pounds lighter, have the firm frame and can take the Baker 6-speed transmission. Save up for the Mikuni carb and the progressive shocks and fork springs. Hopefully you have the tall frame, not the Sportster Low.

[@take5th]

What about rev limiter? Did you switch for higher revs than stock permits? Dino chart shows you wrung it out, but was that with stock electronic module?

[@zebstarnes9694]

I bought my first bike a year ago. It’s a 2017 883 that had been lowered slightly, drag barred, 1200 converted, upgraded exhaust/intake, and dyno tuned. Previous owner had made it into a type of cafe racer/drag bike. Only bike I’d ever ridden. Taught myself how to ride on it and put over 6000 miles on it in about 10 months before I took a spin on someone’s stock 883. I just thought that was how sportsters were until I hopped on the stock turd. OMG I had no idea how much of a difference those upgrades made in my bike. I thought all sportsters would hit 80+ before shifting out of 4th. Mine is so “sporty” I just assumed that’s why they called them sportsters. Then I understood the compliments on my bike when the baggers I blew past earlier pull into the gas stations behind me. I still won’t outrun the bigger bikes on the long haul, but I’ll leave them in the dust on take offs and curves.

[@midgetwitha50cal13]

Does that tuner on the handle bars need to stay there once you install this kit?

[@redmoped]

I was beginning to wonder why you didn’t post any results Lol

[@tonytillman3953]

Should have went with a thunderheader! VERY unique sound, and NO major dips in power! You might have been able to hit the 100 hp,

[@philquezzy823]

When/how do we find out who won the beginner bike giveaway? I keep checking the website but I don’t see anything.

[@chrishagy7890]

The Sporty came out pretty nice. I’m sure the winner was “off the hook” excited when you showed up to deliver it.

[@beardedforlife3740]

Not only the exhaust, but that intake doesn't look like it helps power very much. You could make about 10hp with better of both

[@caseyjones1522]

Yeah the internal breathers rob a couple horses too

[@MadDogRigs]

Love the fact you where in Round rock miss that place probably not gonna see my home town for 6 years

[@michaelrodgers6559]

Rear suspension is fine. The forks shouldn't be decompressing so much under acceleration. Time for a fork cartridge kit or stiffer springs/heavier oil. That 90mph wobble sounds like the death wobble my dyna had before I added the Sputhe stabilizer.

[@ofershragay]

Finally ! Good job

[@Chase_N]

A few upgrades to a Sporty can make it amazing. The same goes for a Dyna, kind of why both models are so popular. S&S makes a T143 motor that pumps out 162 HP & 151 TQ, if I ever blow the motor on my Dyna it's what I'm going for.

[@karlhope9837]

Do you guys know if there's a 6 speed transmission for a 2007 1200 Sportster Low? I was looking at Baker but I don't think it'll fit in the bike without some case modification

[@johnbassam8831]

He's barely into the throttle at any point in the video. Also something was wrong with your Roadster if you couldn't merge confidently. Even when stock mine is up to 90+ by the time I full throttle from a on ramp.

[@decimat777]

So I followed this build, dreamed and schemed, did I go hammer performance? At the end of the day no cause I still had a warranty but I did pick and choose from the screaming eagle catalog and ended up making just a smidge more power than this build with just a 1200 conversion: 88HP 78Tq 7500rpm redline. The cool part is once the warranty is done and I can slap a hammer performance kit in there the supporting mods I put on for the SE build should work for the 1275 kit and we’ll probably be looking at 120+ @ the wheels 😎

[@FrankFitzpatrick-rh5dh]

With a 1200 EVO engine , the number one restriction in volumetric efficiency is the heads . Increase flow in the heads , example 1 - Good CNC porting example 2 - Bigger valves That's why the 1250 heads give the biggest increase for the $$$ spent. It also doesn't hurt to have more cubic inches to go along with it . As the saying goes : There's no replacement for displacement.
