    103 is a stroker with big bore cylinders, 95 is a big bore

    Lots of posts on web boards all over the net.

    Best thing is to decide where and how you want the power, a hot 95 will smoke a showroom 103 SE bike.


    If you want a good combination

    SE High Flow air filter kit or Ness Big Sucker
    95 Cylinders (bore your 88's out)
    95 Flat top pistons (HD 9.5 to1)
    Andrews tw-37B cams
    Send heads to www.motorcyclemachine.com (Short Block Charlies) $300
    Exhaust, change to better flowing slip ons, Hooker, Khrome Werks, V&H
    Powercommander or Race Tuner for EFI (depends on bike year)
    If carb, CV44 and big bore intake (Includes SE High Flow filter kit)
    Get it dyno tuned

    Should do 100/100 or close and work really well on the bagger.

    103 stroker

    Thanks HRK again... all you guys have been great to answer my training wheel questions...

    Am I understanding that a 103 is merely a 95 bored out...and that a 95 is an 88 bored out...?? HD has a 103 (1690") right... (you're on a 116 which is not a HD mill I understand) so if I start with a 103... can I assume correctly that engine can be "stroked" in the manner you describe... heads, cam, ignition, exhaust etc...?? whaddya think the results would be... I'm looking to build a RK with around a 100hp that's not tempermental and twitchy or needs to be fussed with all the time in order to run smoothly... if that's an unreasonable goal perhaps you could advise me differently...?? Thanks... :cool:
