Do you really need a 131 Stage 4 for your Harley Davidson bagger motorcycle? What about the new 135 crate engine? It sounds nice, but is it practical for the average rider?

A CVO used to come with a Twin Cam 110 and that was perfectly fine. Ever since Indian cam onto the scene with their 111, Harley has been pushing the limits further and further with the Milwaukee Eight. In the end it's all about how much power you think you need, and how fast you think you're going to go.

I think you said it…do I need a 131 or do I want it? I certainly don’t need it but I did it anyway. Picked up my 2019 cvo flhtkse this weekend with a 131 installed. Let me put it this way, I couldn’t get the smile off of my face! She has a rumble that I don’t think I have heard on a bike. And from a stop, she has a ton of torque! I live in Texas and the roads are relatively straight. There was a few times that I didn’t know I was doing XXX until I looked back in the mirror and see my wife struggling to keep up in her Q60. Needless to say I put her cruise control on at 75mph for the rest of the ride home. Even at touring speed, she sounds awesome. So do I need it? Absolutely not. Do I want it! Yes, yes I do!

Really good points Ty. Some of the other things no one talks about is the bottom end isn’t upgraded. Then the clutch and transmission. When you start bumping up the power to components that are built for a specific power range you are playing with fire, IMO. Your practically point is spot on. We all love bragging rights and that’s why we do it. We all want the biggest and baddest. See you soon my friend.

My opinion is when it comes to power what do you want is usually much more than what you need. Are usually ride a VTX1800R. It has been in the shop for a while. I have been riding a 750 shadow. When I first started riding the shadow it felt really slow. I have put a little over 3000 miles on it this year. I am having a lot of fun riding that little lightweight bike.

Local dealer told me $12,500 "installed" for that 135. And yeah, you bring up an excellent point. We built a Twin Cam 107" that made 126 hp and 128 lb/ft for my 2008 Road Glide. All the power I could imagine needing for touring and fun. My son has that bike now. My current bike is a '15 Road Glide Special. We built a 113" for it and it does 137 lb/ft and 127 hp. Again, I am not sure what I would do with more power realistically. If it boils down to dick measuring then fine, bring your check book and carry around your dyno sheet if you got the money. And, obviously if someone is legit racing, then I get it. But, I find it kind of laughable how the current trend is bigger and bigger motors with more and more power. Not sure what the point is really. The average HD rider will never "need" all that power and, quite likely, will never really use it. And I question how the primary and transmission will hold up in the long run.

On the ride back up to Wisconsin I wasn't sure. When I was in Tennessee, I had ridden it just a bit with a helmet on. But the very first time I took it out back in Wisconsin. It was hard not to smile. Took me a second, but I realized I was smiling. At that point it was well worth it and I still hadn't really got on it at that point. I had a Yamaha R1 in an R6 track bike for the last 22 years So even though I got the Harley brand new 2021, it lost its luster pretty fast. Just wanted something with some good power for my riding style. It's not for everybody. but if I hadn't done it I would've sold the bike. Power went from 79hp to 138 hp Torque 101 to 150

Great video and great points. I was actually debating on doing a stage 2, woods cam in my 21 Roadking Special. When I put it to paper, did I need this or want this; definately a want. I have a 2017 Streetglide Special stg 2, Reaper 465 cam, RCX headers and Rinehart exhaust and she runs awesome, with some piece of mind bc I fixed known issues. Now my 114 with FM header, TAB mufflers and Pv tune also runs freaking awesome and no need to overdue it(yet). Need to lock in a job after I retire from the Navy in July. Hell look back to early 2000 and we were happy with 96" motors and they ran awesome.

Add their stage 2 kit and a lloydz tune to the 116ci and you're pushing 140ft lb of torque and still be under warrantee for a lot less $$ than HD. Not to mention the Lloydz 121ci Thunderstoke kit that totally surpasses HDs 135ci.

I decided my last bike would be a naked bobber (after leaving sport bikes and being old). So I bought a M8 114 Street Bob (a naked bobber). An 1800cc / 114ci engine on a bare / small frame is most definitely enough (I was actually imagining something smaller). If you want performance, Harley is not for you. However, this naked thing is pretty fun to ride. I ride more than the majority of the baggers I meet. People call bobbers barhoppers, yet I go on long rides and the baggers I know barhop (or equivalent). I though about a stage IV upgrade, but it would be ridiculous. For me, the ideal motorcycle for me has as little as possible beyond the motor. The ironic thing for me, is none of the screaming eagle upgrades I've seen are actually motorcycle riders (trailer their bikes, very short rides, wrap the throttle through town.... you know the type..... profilers).

I have a 2020 low rider S … started with the auto tuner and pipe… nice. Then swapped into a S&S 475 cam and power vision plus air cleaner..WOW (I got over 105 hp and the HD “lope”..totally awesome)… and then I went full S&S internals, 131 Kit and new tune. Holy shit… pull your arm sockets out! Light the rear wheel up on demand.. 150tq and 144 hp.. And you know what… it’s intoxicating.. but it’s like going out with a stripper every time I take her out… quite frankly, stick with the “librarian (or teacher/nurse depending on your taste) and go with the S&S 475 cam and power vision or the preprogrammed module that you can get…It will give you that classic harley sound that the M8 misses… the power is exactly where we ride most of the time…

@@TyFromTennessee absolutely I would. I have a disease… it’s called an IPadonthepotty! Harleys and Jeeps are the same addiction and when I spend quality time alone (with my Amex in hand) I tend to think I “need all that”….. but in this case, that S&S 475 cam is by far the best modification that transforms the bike. No need for the cam chest or any of the other stuff (except for a quality exhaust, power vision tuner and accompanying “tune”, and a good air cleaner. If you check fuel Moto, they have all of the parts and he has “canned” tunes that most likely will match the setup you go with. The owner has an ST so I suspect that have rounded out the options since I did my bike. I actually purchased all of my S&S parts from them and my dealer (Empire in New Rochelle Ny) did the install (they are fantastic to work with if you guys are close to the area… I drive up from Brooklyn to use them. Lastly, I had the bike dyno’d and tuned at getlowered.com in Pennsylvania. (They are another great shop to deal with….) Lastly lastly, I have a bassani 20th anniversary exhaust… it was nice for the 475… but loud and with the 131.. it’s really loud. So I’d look to another direction for that… probably HPI. Hope this helps… btw.. I went to TTU years ago.

I think there is a difference between want Vs need. I don’t need a 131 but if HD gave me one I would not complain. LOL I like the comfort and looks things. Seat , sound system upgrades. All a lot cheaper to do as well. My concerns with above a stage 2 are increased heat , decrease potentially in reliability, burning more $$ fuel. I did suspension on one bike and the bike handled so much better and in curves would probably have beat a 131 in a timed race on a road with a lot of curves.

It'll never run like a sport bike. 117 CVO is strong. Just get the headers and dyno tune it to its full power. The problem is the delayed feel of the throttle. Even if you have the 131 or 135... if it's tuned from on a normal tuner device, you will still feel that lack of instant throttle and consistency. Dyno tune it professionally and you'll feel the difference, even on 114 stock.

Ty, really good points. Everyone would love bigger but... I have a 2017 FLHTK with 107 M8. Added a K&N air filter strictly for maintenance issues. Did add a Vance & Hines FP3 tuner. It didn't add any more performance, just made the bike run silky smooth. Been from the east coast to the west coast on this bike, including up Pikes Peak, and never felt I needed more/bigger.

Cost, practicality and time? Cost = you only live once. Practicality = ???? you ride a motorcycle, isn't that self-explanatory? And Time = Have a dealer do it in the winter when times are slow for them and they might give you a break on labor. AND: having logged in excess of 20K miles on a crate 131 with an aftermarket cam and tuner, all I can say is that there's no replacement for displacement.

That includes the 2 into 1 Trask Assault, RWD 14" shocks, +2 suspension with Patriot Springs in front, MJK floorboards, Kraus risers with Wolf one top tree clamp. I plan on doing a cam specifically Fueling 574s. My Road Glide is for all intents and purposes a "performance bagger" without a 110 or a Milwaukee 8 for that matter. No, no one really needs a 131, or the new 135 CI engine, they are cool though.

My Shovel was born with a 80 cid. I don't like 80 cids, so I de-stroked it to a 74 with Truett & Osborn torque monster flywheels around fifteen years ago.(with a 52% balance factor to bring smoothness down in the 2500 RPM range) A Harley is meant to be a smooth pleasant cruiser. If I want to long distance at a faster pace, I take my Honda Pan European 1100. Oh yeah, the big engine Harley ? Tried a few, hate them, but not as much as the owners wanting to get rid of them.

I totally agree! I had a S&S t143 motor on a Road King at the same time that I had a 103 on a road glide. They both merged on the freeway just as good and I pretty much rode them about the same. Aside from the t143 sounding like an absolute monster nothing else was different and in the end I found it was a waste of $14K in motor, transmission, and upgraded drivetrain parts such as clutches and compensators. A lot of people don't take into account all the extras that you have to do to the drivetrain and fuel system when adding that much power. Not to mention the labor.

The design and layout of the Harley power train dates back to the days of 35 or 40 horsepower. “Yes”, it has been strengthened, slightly improved from those days. However it is not designed for continuous 120 horsepower, plus high RPMs. Torque numbers over 125 or 130 will destroy the drive train in short order. So you spend a pile of money to transform a reliable user friendly motorcycle into a high strung, unreliable high dollar junk pile. If you are a unlimited horsepower and speed junkie go to the super sports bikes. In them 200 plus horsepower isn’t a problem.

The problem is your factory Harley is not made to handle the power that 131 or 135 or 140C.I. engine is putting out. I used to put big bore kits on scooters. One thing you will take away from your bike is reliability. When you hop up something doesn't matter what it is. Things will break more frequently and the cost of those repairs will eventually drain your bank account. Harley Davidson is just trying to market something that make a man feel like a bigger man without actually being a bigger man. I personally don't like Harley Davidson because their business practices are not invested in the customer they are invested in the corporate profits and the motor company never gave a damn about 1 of their customers that's why I ride a Honda. Best choice I made, I ride a 2022 Honda gold wing. The Honda motor company uses common sense and makes the best corporate decision based on the consumers idea. Honda actually cares about building the best quality product for a fraction of what Harley Davidson is charging.

I have spent thousands of upgrades especially engine. Engine upgrades the most expensive. Huge costs with not a huge gain in horsepower. I now buy bikes for the horsepower offered from the factory stock. You never get your money back when selling. I wish Harley would lighten their bikes with more carbon fiber, aluminum, and other lighter materials. A lighter bike helps handling, braking, and acceleration. Without stability control, wheelie control, cornering abs/TC you can not really feel full benefits of horsepower gains. Some of these sport bikes make over 200 horsepower and weigh only 400 pounds. The only way you can really ride these powerful Bikes are rider aids.

Love the channel and I know this is an older video, but how serious are we supposed to take a guy riding a CVO talking about practicality on something we might want to do to our bikes? LOL!

I figured I'd leave my Harley stock, the most I could ever hope to have is a fast Harley, I'd never have a fast motorcycle.

There's nothing wrong with stock if that you want for your bike! The stock 114 and 117 is plenty enough power for me. Thank you for watching today!

Moonshine Harley is not an engineering company like HARLEY Davidson who has to follow all the test and safety standards. Hence anyone who purchase their custom kit are at the mercy of their trial and error. Any Harley stock has all the power you need on a road and it also like good. I really even don’t want the extra heat . Investing on more HP will lead to investing on more parts ( transmission to heat management). Harley motorcycles by itself need a lot of maintenance and if you put more kit then it equals even more maintenance and lot of time. Good thought in the vedio.

Hi Michael. For now I'm just sticking to the stock motor in my Glide. That is plenty for me. Thank you very much for watching!

I would love to put a 131 crate motor in my trike, but really, I’d rather have a reliable ride. I did add the Stage 2 cam along with the stage 1 changes, and that really helps. I added CoastalMoto wheels to my trike and that cost $3800 (don’t tell my wife!) so, add that to the cost of the Stage 1 & 2 and I am astonished!! Now I want the Legends suspension front and rear… 🤦🏻‍♂️ Does it ever end?

Haha. Don’t worry I won’t tell. Yeah man. Upgrades never end do they? You’ll love Legends if you get them. I have them on the front and rear of my CVO…. Total game changer. Thank you very much for watching!

Isnt the weak link the drive belt. You have 1200 lbs of person and bike, 150hp, 130ft lb of torque. Seems the belt and rear pulley were never designed for this. If Harley offered a 200 HP cvo bagger, would you buy one? What would you do with it.

Hey John. I recently traded in my CVO and I don't think I will purchase another one. The CVO was a great experience, but probably won't go that way again. Thank you very much for watching!
