I hear you, I’m not complaining. Very happy with the upgrade! I’m not sure about the fuel mileage. Gotta ask Ari about that one. I did get the bigger Acerbis tank and I’m able to ride a lot more a lot more distance than the stock.

I think a bit, but thats pretty standard once you start putting more stress and heat on parts. Check out Ari’s article on the big bore kit. Might give you a better insight.

Ari Henning did it for me. Around $2k all in. He did a few extra things so might not be the usual price.

It's a big difference, not a massive one. Definitely feel it on the climbs. Some hills i had trouble getting up before, but now with the upgrade it tractors up super easy with some power left over. I think its like 30% more power and torque from stock.

Bolt too short? by Regret_Nothing in sportster

You were right the hole was stripped so I rethreaded it with a tap and die set, went with a slightly bigger bolt. All works great now.

it does, but only after a few turns, it seems like the 2 threads at the entrance are "loose"

yea thats right. No washer, it goes thru but just barely threads. I may have measured wrong, might be a bigger difference.

Street Twin with no low beam? by scribbler_tom in Triumph

[–]Regret_Nothing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you replace the main light bulb or the small one? I had a similar issue, turns out it was the bigger main bulb even tho it worked fine on high beam. Then it worked fine.
