103" build - advice needed from the experts

    I have done so much reading on this topic that my eyes are starting to bleed........ but I'm still confused as to the best way to go........  I want to order my new bike with the 103" kit done at time of delivery purely so I can get a good "package deal"  thrown in with the cost of the bike.

    My local dealer (Frasers Perth WA) quoted $5000 for the "kit" which included all the parts needed for a stage II ......  but many parts that I'm not totally sure about (like SE Pipes? SE heads? and SERT?)......

    So my question is, for a 2010 Bagger wanting a mild - moderate 103" build, that pulls nicely all the way to the revlimiter, but also has good ridability and manners...... What is the best combination of parts??  should I go with the dealers advice and use all HD SE parts?? or not??  and also, do I need to deck the heads? mill them? how much?

    Thanks for any advice guys.

    Surly how did you like the Andrews 54H cam in your last 103" build?  How did it perform?

    Cheers

    Nice cam for the road Berms.

    It had a fat midrange that made it easy to ride hard without having to rev the hell out of it.

    I might put one in the road king once i get back from Brissy.

    cheers

    berms ole mate i gota say me and the oleladie have a ultra with stock 96"and personaly i think it goes plenty good enough as is , dont get me wrong tho if i could afford it i prolly go the 103/107/110 or sumthing but i think alot of people think they need to go better and bigger  ,, oh and im 110 kilo's the misses is 130+ kilo's and we where loaded to the max still pop wheelies and drag most cars off at the lights .....as for the $5000 sounds a bit rich to me you can get a 103"kit from shit forgot i think its frazers ?? dont quote me for $2000 ??!!! its in the latest heavy duty !
