You have what many consider to be the last of the good ones. the crank is in the better lasting bearings and if you have fuel injection, it is the Delphi, which is superior. If your bike is comfortable, I would consider doing a 95 or 98 in build. If you have the heads ported, use a good exhaust(not true duals), have a full flow air filter and a good cam, you should get close. 90/95 is typical. There are builders that promise 100/100, but you need TB and other work for that.

Mine runs with the best of them. Many of the guys that claimed 100/100 were not as fast as mine and mine dynoed at 90/95.


If you really want it to run, you could put a stroker crank in, just use a beefy one, not the stock Harley one. An ultima 6 sp works well also.

In today's market, you won't get near what you think your bike is worth on trade in or even selling it private party. Harleys were made to overhaul, do a good job and you will have a strong runner.

The only thing that the new bikes really have going for them is the abs brakes and better radio.

It depends on what you want out of a bike. I wish I had an 02 dresser.
