    If I ever get another bike and they put a 114 in those that will be it, pipe, cam, tune and ride, they handle just fine, seats comfortable, bags and fairing come off and go on in seconds, forwards already there, exterior rear shock adjustment for the missus or gear, best bang for buck they make in my very humble opinion.

    There were rumours that the 2020 version would have a 114 available. HD brought out the Lowrider S instead. 

    To be honest, even though it still has odometer in two digits, the performance is great even with the 107.

    Ross it's good that you are happy with your bike, I'm in no way trying to put the 107 down, I've ridden both, prefer the 114 is all, my son in law has the 107 lowrider, RS468 cam, half decent zorst and thundermax, it hammers, some really good cams out there for the M8 and they respond so well to those mods, even the Harley torque cam performs well, but you need a real tuner not the pro street so warranty is out the window, well they will say it is anyway.

    Interestingly, Frasers supply an after market tuner with the stage 1 kit rather than the pro street. 
    They never provided any leads with it, just an instruction to make sure to bring it with me when I bring the bike to be serviced. It apparently is locked to a single bike.

    I never mentioned wanting that, bit it wouldn't get them out of having to honour the warranty in Australia.

    I'm happy with it for now but there might be a Stage II torque cam in its future if I get bored with it??

    If they supplied it they are on your side I would think, rules are different here though some dealers will try to wriggle out of anything, enjoy mate, I'm off for a ride myself.
