He did not say stock head pipe he said the test was done with fuel motos 2-1-2 and its a good performing head pipe and performs very similar to the 2-1 and doubts the results will be that much different with the 2-1.
My FM 2-1 head pipe should be here today cant wait. LOL
 
Pretty darn close, but I can usually get him 'cause I'm better at timing my shifts to the power curve. ...Aaaand I might beat my bike a little harder than him.

His bike feels faster to me sometimes when I ride it, but I think it's due to his map being a bit leaner on the bottom in partial throttle. His bike feels crisp, while mine feels like it's fat, similar to being a jet size too rich or the needle taper is too thin (like my FCR carb).

At WOT they feel similar, and it really depends on who's riding better. I can beat him riding his bike vs him on mine.

ON EDIT:

I learned to shift by feel when I was 17 and had a 5.0 Mustang. My friends could never figure out why mine was faster than theirs. It was the difference between shifting at 4500-4800 vs pulling it to the redline. You could feel the car run out of wind above about 4800, and the torque peak was 3000 rpm. Shifting at 4500-4800 would put you right in the torque peak and shoot you forward, while they're running it to the limiter trying to go fast...

Anyway, I shift when I feel the bike falling off. No need to rev it to the moon, but it is fun to bounce it off the rev limiter from time to time!
 
Jamie has done quite a few dyno runs on their Dyno-Tuned Jackpots, which will only work in a stock headpipe (or similar pipe with a crossover), and his results show that they perform near the level of a 2-1. These mufflers are asymmetrical and channel most of the exhaust to the right muffler. You'd have to pin him down on exactly how close they are, but he would know since he's tested them all.
 
I'm not aware of any high-compression pistons available from HD for the TC96, although someone on the aftermarket probably makes them. You could always go the head-gasket route like Boogloodude suggested, and I think that would put you up into pay dirt. Based on what I know now, if I was installing either of these Wood cams that's what I would do.
 
We got our 107" build all finished and the bike fired up this afternoon. Ran thru a few heat cycles and I am going to put on a few hundred miles this weekend in the northwoods breaking it in. I put together a starter PC-V map and am letting the Auto Tune do its work, the tune is very close already and throttle response and performance is awesome, I will know when I get it up on the dyno for fine tuning monday what the numbers are, but it is VERY strong and sounds absolutely wicked. I will report back in on Monday and catch up on many of the questions in this thread. Thank you very much for everyones support and participation in this thread and have a great weekend.
 
Stop with the wicked builds. It's getting expensive. Now that I'm planing on a Woods triple nickle in my 96" with a fat cat those 107 #'s are going to make me drool. I'm going to have to un subscribe.
 
Real gains can be had with a little head work, too. Even a little cam can be made to work very well if the heads are breathing.

A 107 at 10.5:1 and decent heads is my goal in the next year or so.
