Big Bore Bliss
My BB331 arrived Friday started install after work and started it up at 1 a.m. Got the bodywork and seat on this morning and have been breaking her in today. I am very happy with the mod, bike runs great and has torque now! I ended up with DJ132 and the needle clip at pos 2 (from the bottom). Pulls clean and revs out quicker than before. Put the 14t sprocket back on and love the power on the two lane highways. Anyone else doing a big bore this spring?

This spring?...just a little earlier. Details in 351 thread below.
I put about 20 miles on the rings. Then couldn't ride...you probably know that. The buds are taking me and the bike out to the desert tomorrow. I still can't ride. They are going to finish seating the rings for me. It needs ridden. I trust them...I think..ya I do.
I'm going to kick back in the spring sun and enjoy the day on a nice Cabelas reclining camp chair with a can in hand. They will enjoy a nice hour or 2 ride.

That's the plan -- enjoy the day. What's even more frustrating...or good...depending on your POV...they will be teaching the new GF some finer points of riding. Now aint that a biotch? I have good friends. And if I wind up with a GF that rides...could be sweet bliss.

im might do a 351 next spring, but for now it just riding. bikes got almost 21K on it, rings have to be hating me by now. good choice on vendors though, let us know how you like it long term.

my 2012 250s only has 200 miles on it,but I plan on pulling the plug on a 331 kit late spring. I find myself on this bike more than my crotch rocket, so a lil more power should make it even more fun....
