I DOUBLED THE HORSEPOWER IN MY HARLEY DAVIDSON ROAD GLIDE MOTORCYCLE

MY 2022 HARLEY DAVIDSON ROAD GLIDE STANDARD CAME WITH THE 107 MOTOR. NOW I UPGRADED THE MOTOR TO THE HARLEY DAVIDSON SCREAMING EAGLE 128 STAGE 4. AFTER SOME OTHER MODIFICATIONS I DOUBLED THE HORSEPOWER ON THE MOTORCYCLE.

Why would anyone turn down a 128 kit from HD!! It's pretty cool that you had this opportunity. Now you need to add Love Jugs to this one to keep it cool. I have the fan assisted oil cooler and added the Love Jugs it really does help especially when you're stopped.

[@speedyReedyEnterprise]

Which direction does your oil cooler fan blow ? Does it pull air towards the rear of the bike or does the fan push air into the actual cooler ?

[@saviodunkin]

Great info once again John. After watching and learning from all your videos this past year, i have my 114 street glide special set up with the 475 cam, khrome werks slip ons and dyno tuned professionally using a power vision tuner. Fun to ride and extremely reliable. Bike has a little over 20k miles now in 14 months and ZERO issues. I appreciate all the content. Cheers from Maine.

[@CYCLEFANATIX]

That is awesome! 👊👍

Look at the service records of a professional racing motorcycle . They will strip-down those bikes after every race.

[@RBUSA1969]

I notice you have lights mounted on your crash bars....care to share the brand of lights and mounts.. they look pretty cool.

[@VN9001]

Nice honest video presentation on the big Stage 4 upgrade. And good call on the increased cooling requirements too. I totally agree with you on the power of the stock 107 - I went stage 2 strictly for the improvement in the sound and I'm very happy with it.

[@jamescruz7460]

Good vid John Don't forget the Amsol. That will help with temperature

[@parkeslife4323]

Nice! Look at a 1-2" tank lift? It will open up airflow over the heads and steers a bit more moving air towards the rear cylinder.

[@onlyhereonce7290]

Very informative video. You put a lot of work into the video. It shows. Good job 👍🏻

A 107 with good cam and tune right operator…is a great runner.

[@dnewman3402]

That's why I had the Harley dealership make the ECM stop firing the rear cylinder when my front wheel is not rolling.

[@jeremybishop3519]

Very nice set up and nice bike. Most don't know you can get about 130hp/tq out of the 114" M8. I have a 2022 street glide special 114", zippers stage 2 kit with 472 cam, sawicki 2-1 full exhaust, screaming eagle ventilator air cleaner, screaming eagle 64mm throttle body with matching intake, bigger injectors and upgraded clutch. My numbers are 128hp/129tq, power right off idle. I might have 5500$ in parts and tune.

[@marcasselin8292]

I totally get why you did it, hey if its free its fo me !but i have to tell y you mad max would have been my build of choice almost bulletproof ! Time will tell how this build holds up with all the long miles you put on. Good luck bro and oh ya great channel !

[@CYCLEFANATIX]

Thanks brother 👊👍

[@demon39063]

100% agreed on "you don't need it" generally. I have a turbo on my (otherwise stock, except for ECU) 2018 107", and it's plenty. You really don't want a Harley with that frame geometry to be much faster. Get a sportbike if so!

[@gianlucamadonna4817]

Try Rbw skull 5 stages road city etc...from Italy it helps 5 different engine maps for example city its good to keep coller the engine during stop and go ciao

[@richardrussell500]

My stock 107 in my 2023 Street Glide has plenty of power for me... big displacement equals big heat. The oil cooler fan works well. It is a must for any HD M8. Stop and go riding will kill these engines. I also run the dipstick temp gauge so I can monitor the oil temp. I rode in 100+ degree weather today and my oil temp was at 215* when I got home. I may install Love Jugs in the future. Crazy what we have to do to keep these engines alive. HD could do much better. Full jacketed water cooled engines are in the future. Are you going to install the Trask vented tranny cover and external head breathers? Look up Invisi frame down tube sticker cover. It has magnets and it covers those ugly stickers. I purchased an extended warranty through Jim Palmer (retired Marine) that covers all aftermarket parts. So, a tuner might be in my future. The hard part is finding a dyno tuner who knows what he is doing. Great video :-)

[@CYCLEFANATIX]

Great thanks, possibly in the future I might add it

[@professor767]

Good info, John. Harley finally will add liquid cooling to the new CVO twins, like everyone else. It is not easy to know where the traffic jams are, stay off the bike in hot weather, etc. I enjoy riding too much. Notice you don't have to worry about that on the Hyabusa. If I was going to buy a Harley, I think I'd wait until those water cooled motors trickle down to the rest of the bikes. Ride safe.👍🏾

[@CYCLEFANATIX]

Thanks buddy I agree with you

[@samnance2891]

You have to keep bike’s moving even if you have fans, the fans run your battery down and I have seen some of the plastic fan blades melt

Ultracool is a great product! Installed it on my 09 Electra Glide. I also installed the "Flo" oil filter. Impressive build quality! This type of filter is used for racing and aircraft. It can be cleaned and reused!

[@painsrides3616]

Just recently the rear base gasket of my old stage 2 Victory blew. Since I was pulling the jugs to repair this, I gave some serious thought to doing a 117" big bore kit & clutch upgrade.. I decided to skip the upgrade and only do the repair, the bike has been good enough as it is and I didn't want to sink another $2k into it.

[@biglou819]

Nice job as always! Have a safe holiday!

[@CYCLEFANATIX]

Thanks! You too!

[@DeBa1226]

Bro great video, love to hear the thoughts around the upgrades; great job explaining as much. Mad Max is off the charts. You gotta retire brother and move to TN/NC/GA and away from all the traffic! Can’t wait for you all to get out West again or into the South. You and your boys might need to ride the epic Natchez Trace Parkway start to finish from Nashville to Natchez, Mississippi (no commercial vehicles allowed). Then cut over thru Eureka Springs, Arkansas, stay at the Cathouse, then on over to KRIVER Campground (Veterans/First Responders stay free!)😂🇺🇸👊

[@onlyhereonce7290]

Just as a side note. I don't ride in the summer heat. Not in California. It's 120 days of summer for me on average. With temps over 105 nearly the entire summer. So I'll wait until November 1st. But that's just me.

I have had my Sportster for 25 years and four hundred thousand miles on her.Runs 200 degrees in Florida in the summer.

[@kawancraigstewart]

I remember the vid with silverback when you were on the freeway with Traveling tall . While tall was trying to get to the power you reeled him in fast but a car got in the way . Silverback cam produced a lot of torque down low to mid and even on the freeway cruising your still in 2k -5k range so when you twist the throttle your gone no needing to get to the power and if you take the race longer and stretch out the gear over 5k the horsepower kicks in . Talks 552 cam didn’t have a high torque curve down low to mid so he had milliseconds to get to the power as where you already were in it with silverback as soon as you twisted . It’s hard to find a cam that hits everywhere as soon as you grab throttle but with the right combination of parts that is the difference in walking away from them and just leaving to reeling them in or just flat out destroying cuz if that curve

[@paulharding6638]

[@robertsilva5041]

Just out of curiosity, if that back cylinder gets hotter, can there be a way to put a mini fan under the seat area closer to that cylinder, that can cool off that cylinder quicker or as good as the front. If not, get this idea going. Lol
