I love this "best"/"premier" question!

Best as in.....what respect?
There are MANY "bests"...in any given idea, question or application.

As in, are "you" getting the "best" out of what your 1125 is currently capable of giving?
Or do you just want the "best" bragging rights?

Should have been more specific. 180-190rwhp, you know like Ducati 1198R performance.
Thanks...............steve

At this early stage I would have to think that if anyone has done this yet then they would by default be the best.

I havent heard of anyone doing slugs heads or cams yet.

I believe Dris (Easyrider) is working on doing it, but not aware of anyone completing it yet.

As for the 180-190rwhp goal, I personally thing you'd be better off going after what's available between tuning & exhaust for now until the aftermarket 'matures' more.

Just my opinion & YMMV.

That's what I'm after, knowledge of the high performance Liquid cooled buell market. I know this a relatively new engine for developement work. I'm new to this DOHC engine. I already know all the in's and out of the "old" pushrod stuff. Just trying to obtain knowledge of the future of Buells and what can be done for twins racing....

Keep in mind the law of diminishing returns.

To get 180rwhp, you're going to have to spend an inordinate amount of money.
