Performance Harley Upgrades are More Than Just Fun and Bragging Rights

Performance Harley upgrades are more than bragging rights and just having fun. Performance Harley Upgrades can also serve another purpose with safety and utility. Have you ever considered just how much your Harley-Davidson weighs? Harley-Davidson motorcycles are not lightweights by any means, this is before you add your weight, a passenger, gear and any accessories. It's easy to have you're Harley engine hauling well over 1,000 pounds, at that point is the stock horsepower and torque really enough? With all that added weight you may not have the passing power and pulling power with the stock engine that you would want and need. Having a little extra power can be a big benefit when you're loaded and having to avoid a sticky situation.

Another great video. I remember my first HD. So excited to get a 88ci engine after riding in the dirt forever. I had a Honda CR250. Thing was fast. One of my first big day rides and I thought there was something wrong with the engine. It had no power. Then I found out what you had to do. Little taken aback I had to upgrade air, pipes and a remap. Did it, and it was at best ok. Then I found out about cams. Did that swap and the engine ran like it should. Ever since then it just cost of doing business. Last time I did the heads too. I’m like you, gotta get around anything I’m passing fast as possible. My 40-90 is fast. Real fast. Love it. My 103ci is at it’s peak without over stressing the engine and transmission. Strong, fast, reliable. Down the road I go!

🛑🛑 I smiled the other day when my wife and I were out on my CVO Ultra Limited “Twin Cam” with the Stage 4 117 kit in it. There was a dude and his wife on an older 1200 Sportster. The young man pulled out first and I followed. As we hit a very long straight away, I rolled the throttle on my bike and passed the Sportster with ease, and continued up a gradual grade; leaving the Sportster well behind. When we got home, I told my wife I did that guy on the Sportster a favor. My wife looked at me and puzzled my statement . Then I told her, that the guy has been telling his wife he needs a big block touring Harley, but she never saw the need for a new bike (“your Sportster is just fine”) I think things changed and wifey saw the “argument” in a different light as I “roared by”😂. I’ll bet they were at the local dealership in 3 days after that 😀👍💯.

[@anchorsaweigh9893]

Stage 1 on 114 makes a pretty big difference. I just added a Cam set up and Air Cleaner and it made a big difference. On the 02 TC88 it was an anemic motor but it wasn’t all bad. I upgraded mine to a 95 gear drive and it has been a beast ever since. I would say for anyone who wants a Harley but doesn’t want to pay $25k-$30k I would recommend a early 2000s Dyna and just toss in any number of engine upgrades, oil cooler and your own touch and you will have a bada$$ ride. Just my humble opinion.

On the trike you should put a car tire on the front of that road nightmare. Absolutely right about performance upgrades and the real purpose of them as it relates to actual real life events. Roll on torque, I think, is what you need more than anything else as far reacting to a situation. I gave a presentation on motorcycling and hit this very point in regards to people riding scooters, even the big ones, on the highway. This is a huge advantage that American V-twin platforms have. The best of both worlds now with torque and horsepower, thank Indian for upping the game. I even mentioned how sport bikes have tons of horsepower they have no low end torque so around town at posted speed limits they feel like riding a scooter which explains why those guys are alway jerking the rpms up all of the time. I put a screaming Eagle carb kit and intake on my sportster S for this very reason. Power delivery was so much better with the exception of snapping two belts jerking on the throttle at a dead stop testing the carb. LOL! Imagine 118mph on a 1200S rigid mounted engine in fifth gear.

The torque cam with your 114, you should see around 100 horse and about 110 torque. With the exhaust your running you might even do a little better than that.

[@kenp639]

2009 Dyna low rider, for long term reliability should I install more than a manual primary chain tensioner? While I am in there, can I effectively check the crank runout on the drive side? Also should I keep the OEM compenstor or do you recommend one? Thanks, I really enjoy your videos! Ken

[@GixxerFoo]

Thank you, I appreciate it! A manual tensioner in there is the main thing, but while you're in there it's not going to hurt anything to go ahead and update the compensator if you want. The OEM is a crap shoot, some last and some don't but my opinion is the manual tensioner is partly to blame. The Screamin Eagle is a good one on the low end, but it's hard to beat the Dark Horse Man O War. Dark Horse is rebuildable too, it's an eliminator with a cush drive. To get the run out checked you'll have to pull the cams and read the runout off the pinion shaft.

[@jeffreyness9741]

I just keep thinking that extra horsepower is great but with an air-cooled motor stuck in traffic what is the implications for thermal meltdown. I guess the question is do high performance motors put out more heat they can't control but they maybe don't put out so much heat because of more gasoline to cool it. My last crotch rocket wanted to melt my legs. My naked Sportster is never really uncomfortable sitting in traffic in August.

What do you think about doing spotlight “fantasy” builds on the channel? Maybe a sportster that’s just for straight line performance, or a bagger built for optimum power for two-up riding (including suspension mods), or a ‘classic’ build focused on using a carbureted evo? I love your videos and think that a series like this would be fun. And there’s tons of concepts for future builds. Shovels, sleepers, track bikes, etc.

[@gvs5318]

Great talking points and no sales pitch required on this end. The old adage of there's no replacement for displacement holds true even for motorcycles for me. But, after 2,500 miles ridden on my Stage 4 131 I've outgrown it. I am a fan of WOODS Cams so I'm considering the 77X avenue along with the super duper DynoJet tuner and a bump in compression. Can I ask your opinion on how high would you go on compression? Given today's gas is 11 to 1 out of the realm of feasibility?

[@gelfyd1]

Great review. Thanks!!

[@dutchyjhome]

Very sensible, yes indeed. The best investments in your Harley really are the ones you do not see. So nottin Chrome, but all sensible: Change the handling ; progressive suspension (front and rear) Change into Michelin Tires when possible, change the brakes in to Brembo brakes, that is, if they aren't already mounted. And by all means Get that extended riding course before you're hittin the road with that huge and heavy Big Rig of a full size Harley. In general: A Harley comes with twice the weight of a normal Motorcycle and a Harley comes standard with half the power of a normal motorcycle, so basically it is 4 times easier to get in serious trouble with a Harley compared with a normal (Non Big-Rig) motorcycle, so loose the weight and increase the power. Do this for the right reason though; do this for safety reasons and not to compete with normal motorcycles, because let's face it: that's really a battle you'll never ever win with your heavy Big Rig Harley against half the weight and twice the power of a normal (Non Big-Rig) motorcycle.

[@GixxerFoo]

That's a great point, Harley actually does have Brembo brakes on the late models now. Harley's make pretty good torque stock but as you mentioned they really aren't like riding any other motorcycle. I'd agree there is for sure a learning curve on a Harley if your a first time owner.

[@richardsmith5738]

I ride a FLHTK 103 HO stage 1 that I love. She is a big girl but in its current state it does everything I need it to do on the hwy. BUT, here's a question: Wouldn't it be nice NOT to have to shell out extra hundreds on hundreds for performance upgrades just to bring a Harley up to "safe" passing power. Shouldn't a "premium" motorcycle already come with "premium" level hp and torque? Just my opinion.

[@GixxerFoo]

Harley has quite the marketing strategy where you get a nice package stock, stage 1 really gets you where you want to be. But if you go beyond that there's always more to be had. Even Yamaha had the same strategy with the Warriors years ago with stage 1 and 2 factory packages.

[@austinhogan5216]

We are enjoying an engine layout that wasn’t designed with the current emissions laws (noise and by-products) in mind. Meeting those standards is why our bikes need help. I am thankful Harley has worked to retain the traditional engine layout for us to work with and enjoy.

[@carlbruhn1772]

If a cam chest upgrade and a low end torque cam isn't enough, I believe a gold wing would be worth considering for myself.

[@GixxerFoo]

Gold Wing is a completely different ride, but a good torque cam will change the entire dynamic of your Harley.

[@tommyweese5697]

^ he’s right, if you pick the perfect cam for your build and riding style, it’ll change everything. More power across the board, torque right where you need it, and pick up and drop off of the power and torque band specialized for how you ride.

The more horsepower n torque over stock like stage one is ok. It's when one goes all out with horsepower n torque maybe nitro n leaves some stock parts example compensator, primary chain, stock gear box you get the idea stock part will brake. Lots of horsepower n torque can make more heat need better cooling. I know air cooled is bulletproof, sometimes be nice to have liquid cooled from factory. Like all touring bike stock with 131 cubic inch liquid cooled with 160 hp/180 torque n trikes 155 cubic inch liquid cooled 180 hp/ 200 torque.

I would be satisfied with a Stage 2 on a 114 or 117. On an Electra Glide Standard with its 107 I would probably want a Stage 4 kit for the reasons that you mentioned, safe but rapid acceleration and passing power. On my 02 Fatboy I did the equivalent of a Stage 2 back in the day and noticed a solid increase in acceleration. I spent a lot of time on freeways in those days.

[@GixxerFoo]

Stage 3 kit on a 107 is the way to go, that really does a lot for that 107. Like you said the 114 an 117 a stage 2 is really all you need, they really come to life with a cam swap.

[@GixxerFoo]

The 574 Feuling is for newer models, the 525 is the ideal cam from Feuling for your year with a 95. If you really wanted to get more you might check out Wood Cams. You might check out the Wood TW-6... they deliver a bit more on the Feuling cams.

@@GixxerFoo please do a video on that as well as under square, over square and a square motor. I'm thinking of 100, 111, 121 and 131 twin cams or EVO... Can't afford a square M8 yet. What would be the benefit to each?

[@leonardstanford1877]

@@johndsmith7785 forget the stroker motors piston speed goes up. Short stroke big bore motors rule & square motors in 2nd place !

Good info, but trikes need a v8 haha

[@GixxerFoo]

True that! V8 trikes are awesome, you don't see a lot of those anymore these days.

[@leonardstanford1877]

A used V8 trike is better then a new HD trike every day !

[@kennethwise7108]

Performance is best achieved by stroking the motor and toss the entire bottom end as they're garbage

[@GixxerFoo]

No doubt, a good built stroker crank is the way to go. For sure redo everything in the bottom end while you're there and get it setup right.
