150/150 are excellent numbers for off the shelf parts and very correct assembly methods were used in both videos. Only worry for the guy who's a burnout king. Broken clutch Basket call be a disaster. The young new builders have great teachers at JP and I know you don't want any surprises for anyone.

You guys should do a “budget “ build with a Softail Standard. $3,000 limit. Ergonomics, suspension, performance. Show how to plan out a budget build.

Hi Patrick, amazing video and want to get these same upgrades done to my bike, slightly confused as at 0:35 you said there's installation videos of every step of the process, and your article mentioned once we have all the tools all we have to do is follow the video series. Only issue is that I can't find these installation videos/series anywhere on the entire KZbin channel. Are they still to be uploaded? If you could point me in the right direction it'll be massively appreciated! Cheers Patrick

No. The bigger injector is used for the increased engine capacity and output where the stock injectors won't flow enough fuel. A stock injector flows plenty of fuel for the stock engine.

I can't justify building a big twin. If I was gonna build a Harley to go fast, it'd be a Sportster. Those Sporty engines are way overbuilt, their bottom end can handle 200+ HP and last 100,000+ miles untouched, they're lightweight and they're just a way better architecture for power production, and it shows. They make a shit ton of power with a big bore kit and cams, and they do it reliably. Comparably, the price you spend on a big twin for the little return you get? It just doesn't seem worth it to me. Intake, exhaust, a cam and a tune is about as far as I'd go on a big twin. After all... That $35,000 Harley with $$$$$ worth of engine work to make 148hp, is still waaaaaaaaaaay slower than some bone stock Japanese 600cc bike. But you take a $11,000 Sportster and spend $3,000 on the engine, you're making more power than the big twin in a bike that's hundreds of pounds lighter for tens of thousands of dollars less.

Or you can just buy a triumph, kawasaki, indian, honda, etc and save the 10-15k and have a bike that will have less issues does the road
