V-Twin Expo 2017 review, part 7





HorsePower Inc: The Indianapolis based performance specialist designs and manufactures a wide variety of throttle bodies, intakes, air cleaners and more to complete EFI builds. Newly available from HPi is what is said to be the only aftermarket throttle body upgrade for the 2017 M8 Harley-Davidson.  A 60mm billet throttle body with fully CNC ported 1.900 intake port will be available later this spring; www.horsepowerinc.net


Daytona Twin Tec: Allen Alvarez, owner of the Florida based fuel injection tuning specialist, says “ours is the only complete EFI system of its kind. Available in AlphaN, 100kpa and 300kpa speed density formats, the TCFI systems take serious tuners and engine builders to the next level - without compromise.” Allen was recently the recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award by Easy Riders Magazine in recognition of his almost 40 years involvement with the motorcycle industry – a career that has seen him involved with a veritable “who’s who” of many of the best respected names in the motorcycle aftermarket; www.daytona-twintec.com
 


Hawk Performance: The Ohio based subsidiary of one time Harley OER brake pad manufacturer Wellman Friction Products (part of Carlisle Brake & Friction), Hawk offer aftermarket sintered metallic and NAO organic (Non Asbestos Organic) disc brake pads that “offer world-class braking performance for sport and heavy motorcycles. This product line combines the quality and fitment of Original Equipment with unsurpassed stopping power and quiet braking performance”; www.hawkperformance.com
 


Brock’s Performance: New products from the Dayton, Ohio based performance specialist include these Slovenian made carbon fiber wheels by Rotobox and additions to their custom swingarm program.
