I have a 2000 M2 Cyclone with a cam change, free flow intake and exhaust, reworked carb and a rev chip. Mine is powered by the 1203 XL (Sportster) engine. My bike is an American Sport Bike. The 1125R is a parts wagon. It’s not an American Bike. Sorry Erik, you have walked away from your own dream. It’s a shame, with your engineering skill and determination to build an American Sport Bike, why don’t you build a true performance engine. Or was it easier to let someone else build your bike? 1FNGR
