    Pat got his from ISLAND RACING in the USA.
    From memory Pat's is a mix of Carl's at ISLAND and RIVA.
    You can get the RIVA kit from AJSP on the Gold Coast----I don't think RIVA will supply direct----before I bought my SHO I thought about a kitted up FX160 and RIVA would never answer my mail to them----Carl did though, no problem at all.
    FX160 should do about 65mph kitted up. Seems my SHO is good for 66.
    Not that I really care about top end. I'm just a bit of an old 'cruiser'.

    I fitted a mix of R&D and RIVA bits to my 2007fxho cruiser from carl at island racing, great price and fast postage, and easy bloke to deal with, ordered by email...

    It turns sharper,pulls harder out of turns and dosent cavitate as much, and defidently hooks up better in the chop. The free flow exhaust gives it a good note to!! havent gps run it yet as only taken it out once since i installed the bits and it was ROUGH...

    RIVA INTAKE GRATE
    RIVA FREE FLOW EXHAUST
    RIVA RIDE PLATE
    R&D PUMP SEAL KIT
    R&D TRUMPETS
    R&D HIGH FLOW AIR FILTER

    COST UNDER $800 AUS (PARTS AND FREIGHT) DELIVERED TO MY DOOR

    oh and it was easy to install... I went with the R&D trumpets cause the RIVA ones are aluminium and you have to move something and modify.. wasnt in to that.... The longest part was the exhaust and you have to cut the original and use part of it for a join... was easy to do but took a bit to make it fit perfectly in clamps etc..... every thing else was a piece of cake......
