Is your rebuildable? Have a talk with one of the sponsors here. I would advise shipping the motor to them, have them button it up and then you can put it in the bike. It will then need a custom tune.

Do some research & have your motor upgraded.Talk with a site sponsor here about what your looking for hp & tq wise, and have your motor upgraded!!!! If you buy a new CVO 110 you will still be disappointed with the performance!!!

You should first determine if your happy with the bike model. Is your sold on the bike I would go with a engine build as recommended by those above

Plain & simple,It's not going to run like you think it should run.The motor still needs a bit of massaging to make it go;heads need to be done,bottom end addressed,bump in comp, & a good cam to match the heads & comp!!!Then you will have a good running 110!!!

The 110" has the cubic inch to establish great power.
A 55 mm HPI t/body, Wood 8 cams, some cylinder head mods, along with a good pipe(s), and tune it.
You'll know you made the right moves.
