HIGH PERFORMANCE PARTS FOR V-TWINS SINCE 1958 S&S History A Passion For Speed S&S Cycle has been in the business of manufacturing high quality, high performance engine components for nearly 50 years. What started as a passion for speed, grew into the best known company name in the v-twin high performance aftermarket. George Smith Sr. had to build is own parts to make his motorcycle faster. Now the company he founded manufactures the most prestigious line of "go fast" v-twin engine parts in the world. The S&S heritage of v-twin performance goes way back, as this 1941 photo of George Smith Sr. illustrates. The popularity of American v-twin motorcycles goes back a lot of years, and S&S has been providing high performance parts for v-twins for almost fifty of them. Now S&S is introducing a line of performance products for a relatively new v-twin, the Victory Freedom engine. Even though the Victory engine employs slightly different technology than our previous products, our near half century of experience in the field of high performance four cycle engines made it easy for us to apply our time honored formula of "more cubic inches = more power" without any difficulty. An additional factor that made this project go smoothly was the cooperation between S&S and the Victory team at Polaris Industries. S&S company founders George and Marjory Smith show drag racing trophies won during the summer of 1952. S&S® Performance Parts For Victory® Available Exclusively Through Victory® Dealers The new S&S performance kits for Victory motorcycles are available only through authorized Victory dealers. One of the biggest factors in our decision to sell them exclusively through Victory dealers, was our desire for complete customer satisfaction. Factory trained Victory technicians equipped with all the required tools, are in the best position to install and set up our kits and to service them afterward. Riders can have their Victory motorcycle stroked and continue to receive service from the Victory dealers they know and trust. 1 S&S strokers were first introduced in 1961, and have long been accepted as one of the most cost effective and easily installed high performance upgrades in the industry. Strokers have changed a lot since the days when JFK was President, and Elvis was too shocking to televise from the waist down. The level of sophistication and technology in S&S stroker kits of today is, by necessity, much higher than it was in 1961. Gone are the days when all you needed was a hand full of jets and a screwdriver to dial in your carburetor to satisfy your stroker engine's need for more fuel. Carburetor? What carburetor? The difficulty of tuning electronic fuel injection alone, has made it vitally important that we follow S&S company founder, George Smith senior's vision of providing complete kits. Kits that include everything needed to build a stroker engine, and just as importantly to make it perform to its full potential. That's why these strokers for Victory motorcycles are offered as part of an S&S Hot Set Up Kit™ which contains everything needed for the installation – including fuel injection calibration. George Smith Sr. machines S&S stroker flywheels in the early 1960's. S&S® Stroker Hot Set Up Kit® For Victory® Freedom™ Engines Economical and Powerful! The new S&S stroker Hot Set Up Kits for Victory Freedom engines are available for 2003 and later Victory motorcycles equipped with 92" or 100" Victory Freedom engines. Unfortunately no kits are available for earlier Victory engines. What makes an S&S stroker Hot Set Up Kit so economical is the fact that it is designed to make use of the majority of the stock engine components. Crankcases, cylinder heads, fuel system, etc are all reused. Cylinders and pistons in factory 100" engines or any 92" engine which has been upgraded with a Victory 100" big bore cylinder kit, can be used almost "as is" with the S&S stroker kit. A Victory 100" cylinder and piston kit is required to install the S&S 106" stroker kit in an existing 92"engine. INSTALLATION Installation of an S&S stroker Hot Set Up Kit is no more difficult than rebuilding a stock engine. All S&S parts are designed to bolt into the stock crankcase with no machining or modifications required. There are only a few minor clearancing operations that must be performed. The skirt of the stock rear piston and the rocker arm support must be clearanced to accommodate the increased piston travel and valve spring diameter. These operations can be done in minutes with nothing more than a hand file or grinder. 2 Dyno Results From S&S Cycle This dyno chart shows the increase in power and torque that the S&S 106" stroker Hot Set Up Kit™ delivers over a stock 92" [or 100"] engine. The 106" test engine was equipped with Victory Stage I mufflers. Dyno results from Dyno Jet® 200 Chassis dynamometer at S&S Cycle's Research and Development facility in Viola, Wisconsin. WHAT'S IN AN S&S® STROKER HOT SET UP KIT®? STROKER CRANKSHAFT The heart of any S&S stroker kit is a stroker crankshaft. As the name implies, the stroker crankshaft increases the stroke of the engine. The longer stroke makes the piston travel farther in the cylinder, increasing the engine's displacement. That means that the pistons draw in more air and fuel on each intake stroke. It just makes sense that if you can burn more fuel, you can make more power, but there's more to it than that. Stroker cranks differ from stock cranks in that the crank journal, that the rods ride on, is farther from the center of the crankshaft. The added distance from the center of the crank shaft gives the pistons and connecting rods more leverage to turn the crank. That's why an engine with a longer stroke will generally have more torque than a short stroke motor of equal displacement. The S&S crank for the 106" stroker is machined from a 4140 steel forging, and increases the stroke of the engine from 102mm to 108mm. To complete the crankshaft assembly, the kit includes S&S 4340 forged steel connecting rods. S&S stroker crankshafts are available for models with roller cam chain (2003-’05 except Hammer and touring cruiser) and for models with the silent cam chain (2005 Hammer® and all 2006 models). Hot Set Up Kits are not available for touring cruiser. VALVE TRAIN To make the most of the increased displacement of the 106" S&S stroker engine, S&S includes a set of special S&S .495" lift cam shafts and a set of S&S high lift valve springs with top collars and valve keepers. The increased lift and optimized timing of the cams increases the amount of air the engine can draw in and allows the engine to get rid of exhaust gasses more efficiently. The valve springs accommodate the increased lift of the cams and assure accurate valve train operation at high rpm. INTAKE The S&S stroker Hot Set Up Kit includes a great looking polished billet aluminum air cleaner assembly with a high flow air filter. By making more air available to the engine, the S&S air cleaner is an important component in the performance of the Hot Set Up Kit. This air cleaner is also available separately to increase the performance of stock displacement Victory engines. See page 5 for more information. FUEL INJECTION CALIBRATION FILE The stock Victory fuel injection system can easily accommodate the fuel delivery needs of the S&S 106" stroker, it has plenty of capacity. It just needs to be tuned to provide the correct amount of fuel to take advantage of the cams, exhaust, and the increased displacement. An authorization code is included with each kit, which allows your Victory technician to load an S&S calibration file into the memory of the stock fuel injection module. It is important to note that the calibration files available are customized for use with the parts included with the stroker kit and the with the recommended exhaust system. If other components are used, decreased performance and possible engine damage may result. 3 Hold On... To Your Horses! When we significantly increase the horsepower and torque of an engine, there are always concerns about whether the stock clutch can handle the additional load. We have found that the stock clutch in 100" models such as the Hammer®, is more than adequate to handle the additional power of the S&S® 106" stroker kit. It is recommended that the heavier clutch spring from these models be installed when upgrading 92" engines to 106". This eliminates the need for the additional expense of an aftermarket high performance clutch. This 2005 Hammer test bike consistently turned 11-second quarter miles at the drag strip.

NOTES: ● Installation of the S&S 106" stroker Hot Set Up Kit in a 92" engine requires that a Victory 100" cylinder and piston kit also be installed. ● Calibration files included with S&S stroker kits were created using Victory Stage I mufflers. The use of other exhaust systems may reduce performance and drivability, and may result in engine damage. ● S&S 106" stroker Hot Set Up Kits are not available for Touring Cruiser models because an adequate performance exhaust is not available. Dyno Results From S&S Cycle This dyno chart shows the improvement an S&S high flow air cleaner assembly can make to performance. The test bike was a 2005 Victory® Hammer®. The lower set of curves represent stock configuration, and the upper curves show the gains with the S&S high flow air cleaner and Victory Stage I mufflers. Note that the curves are almost identical until about 3000 rpm. At that point the engine needs more air than the stock air cleaner can provide. The S&S air cleaner provides the extra air so the engine can make more power. Dyno results from Dyno Jet® 200 Chassis dynamometer at S&S Cycle's Research and Development facility in Viola, Wisconsin. S&S® HIGH FLOW AIR CLEANER KITS Not ready for a Stroker Kit? But want to go faster? If your budget won't handle a stroker kit right now, but you still want to go faster, may we suggest an S&S air cleaner assembly? Here's an opportunity to pick up some more power without breaking the bank, and look good doing it. An S&S polished billet aluminum air cleaner assembly with low restriction S&S air filter allows the engine to breath better and produce more power. To make the most of the increased air flow of the S&S air cleaner assembly, we also recommend a set of Victory Stage I mufflers. Refer to the dyno chart to see the power gains to be had from this simple installation. Of course any time you want to make more power, you can figure on using more fuel. In order to provide the correct fuel calibration, the kit includes an authorization number which allows your Victory dealer to load the correct calibration file into the stock Victory fuel injection module. Not only is this kit inexpensive to purchase, the installation cost is also minimal. There is no engine work involved. Just bolt it on, load the new calibration file, and go! S&S High Flow Polished Billet Air Cleaner Kit For Victory (Includes EFI calibration file)...................................41-0021 Although the S&S air cleaner kit will physically fit in Touring Cruiser applications, S&S does not have calibrations available for this model. To see what calibrations are available, log on to the S&S website www.sscycle.com. Click on the technical tab, select "Victory Calibrations". 5 Make Your Bike... A “Stand-Out”! As cool as stock bikes are, they’re all pretty much the same. Most riders are looking for ways to make their bike at least a little different from everybody else’s. The addition of the S&S® billet primary cover made a big difference in the attitude of the this Victory® Hammer®. If you want your bike to stand out from all the rest, an S&S billet primary cover is a good place to start. GO FAST. LOOK FAST. Billet Primary Cover From S&S® Cycle, Inc. Going fast is one of the things that makes motorcycles so attractive, but looking fast can be just as important. This new show polished billet aluminum primary cover gives your Victory motorcycle a whole different custom high performance look. But this isn't just another pretty face. The billet material provides extreme strength and rigidity. In addition, the design of the cover provides an extra .330" clearance to accommodate the installation of a high performance clutch. If the bike next to you at the starting line has this sticker on it, you may not want to try to race him... or her! 6 WHO IS COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY?

Keeping Up With Technology S&S Cycle is the world's leading manufacturer of v-twin high performance engines and parts. We have achieved this position in the industry by developing and manufacturing some of the most innovative products ever. We have continually pushed the level of technology in our products to ever higher levels. That was true in 1958 when George Smith, Sr. first started selling a superior set of pushrods, and it is true today as we sell the world’s most sought after line of high performance engines and components. Brett Smith – President LETTER FROM S&S® CYCLE PRESIDENT Dear S&S Customer, Last year we introduced our new line of Proven Performance® products for Victory® motorcycles. To say that the products were a hit is an understatement. We here at S&S are very pleased that you have come to enjoy and appreciate the efforts we put forth with Victory to provide the very best aftermarket products we could at the greatest value to you, the riding enthusiast. The level of cooperation and collaboration between S&S Cycle and the Victory team at Polaris® Industries will allow us to continue providing products for you to consider. Whether it is the ever popular billet air cleaner kit, the billet primary cover, or our Hot Set Up Kits™, we are determined to provide the quality Proven Performance products S&S has been known for over the past 45+ years. Furthermore, with our 50th anniversary coming up in 2008, we will make sure we have something special in store for our Victory customers along with all of our other valuable v-twin riders worldwide. To this end, we have established an email address specifically for Victory rider feedback and ideas. Feel free to email us with your thoughts and ideas at victoryriders@sscycle.com. We encourage you to become a part of this alliance between S&S and Victory. Without you and your support, the things we do here don’t mean nearly as much. Have fun and ride safe! Sincerely, Brett G. Smith 9 Now Available From S&S®… Variable Pressure Clutch Plate For Victory® Motorcycles! M aking power is one thing S&S Cycle is good at. We’ve been doing it for over 50 Years now. But once you have the power, you have to be able get it to the ground, and that is something we have just gotten involved with in the last few years. Although this is the first effort into clutch upgrades for the Victory line of motorcycles, we are drawing on our experience in the development of our high performance clutches for late model Harley-Davidson® big twins and the experience we have gained from our NHRA Pro Stock racing to come up with a cost effective and well… just plain effective solution for the problem of too much power. The new variable pressure clutch plate uses a series of centrifugal weights around the outer rim of the pressure plate to put additional pressure on the clutch pack as the rpm increases. High performance engines typically make the most torque and horsepower in the higher rpm range, and that is just where the variable pressure clutch plate comes through with some extra squeeze! The new S&S® Variable Pressure Clutch Plate uses centrifugal weights to increase the clamping force on the clutch pack at high rpm. This photo shows a modified clutch hub with the steel adapter installed. Easy actuation at idle, but high performance hook-up when it counts! Like all S&S products the variable pressure clutch plate has been thoroughly tested (aka abused) to make sure it will stand up to the worst that the real world has to offer. In addition to the usual dyno testing and street riding, the final test came at the drag strip, when repeated ¼ mile passes were made on a Victory® Vegas® equipped with a 114” prototype engine kit. With our test riders on the throttle, this was anything but a milk run, and that is where we discovered that the stock clutch hub could not take the extra stress. So in addition to the variable pressure plate we decided to add a clutch hub modification to the package. Stock clutch hubs will be modified, on an individual basis, to install a billet steel inner hub adaptor. That means that you send your clutch hub to S&S, and you will get your own modified hub back. Call your S&S® Customer Support Representative. The new S&S pressure plate fits all 2003 and later Victory bikes equipped with a Freedom® engine regardless of model. It is designed to be used with the stock Victory clutch plates and the stock (green) clutch spring for an easy clutch pull at idle. That makes this a very cost effective upgrade because you can use what you already have. S&S Variable Pressure Clutch Plate for 2003-up Victory Freedom Engines Pressure Plate Force vs. RPM 500 Force (lbs.) 450 400 350 300 250 200 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4500 5000 5500 6000 Engine RPM This graph demonstrates how the S&S® Variable Pressure Clutch Plate actually increases pressure on the clutch discs to over 450 pounds as rpm increases. Compare this to the stock clutch, which maintains the same 350 pounds of pressure through out the rpm range. The increasing pressure created by the S&S pressure plate ensures that the clutch will hold at high rpm, when power and torque output are the highest. We tested the new pressure plate with repeated ¼ mile drag strip runs in a Victory Vegas® equipped with a prototype 114” engine kit producing 119.6 horsepower and 116.2 ft/lb torque. The clutch held up to the pounding and came back for more. New 114” and 107” Top-End Kits For 2003-Up Victory® Freedom® Engines S&S® Introduces two new 41⁄8” bore top-end kits for Victory Freedom engines. Depending on the displacement of the original engine, these kits will result in either a 107” or a 114” engine. Engines with stock 92” or 100” displacement will yield 107” with the stock 102mm stroke crankshaft. Stock 106” engines, or engines with an S&S 106” stroker kit have a 108mm stroke crankshaft, and will end up at 114” when the big bore kit is installed. Proven Performance®! Needless to say any part S&S sells has to live up to our reputation, and we can prove it. A quick look at the dyno chart will convince even the most skeptical that the S&S 114” is a monster. Compared to the output of stock 100” and 106” engines this is huge. In the real world, the same 2003 Vegas® equipped with the S&S 114” kit and a prototype S&S variable pressure plate clutch conversion ran the quarter mile in 10.981 seconds with a top speed of 120.70 mph. S&S Big Bore Kit 107” and 114” Have your dealer call for spec/build sheet, or S&S/Victory dealer can download the sheet from www.ssdealer.com/victory/. Dealer logon is required. CONTINUED–New 114” and 107” Top-End Kits For 2003-Up Victory® Freedom® Engines Cylinders Must Be Modified What Else Is Needed? S&S® will modify stock cylinders on an individual bases In order to get a 41⁄8” bore required for these engines. That means you send your stock cylinders to S&S, and you will get your own cylinders back, modified and fit to S&S pistons. The modifications include a boring operation and the installation of S&S 41⁄8” bore cast iron liners. These cylinders will be fit to the appropriate pistons for the stroke of the existing engine. In addition each kit will come with a calibration download card. The engine builder will need to provide base gaskets and alignment dowels, to assemble the engine. In addition it should be noted that the calibration file for this kit was developed for use with the S&S 495 cams and valve springs, an S&S billet air cleaner, and Victory Stage I Performance Slip-On mufflers. The S&S cams and air cleaner are not included with the kit because we know that many customers already have these parts in their engines, so they can use the parts they already have. Before the cylinders are modified, a spec/build sheet must be filled out to ensure that we have all the information we need to perform the work and get the correct parts. Another thing that will be needed is a stronger clutch. We highly recommend the S&S variable pressure plate clutch conversion. See page 1. A stock Victory® cylinder being bored out to accept the iron liner. A cast iron liner is slipped into a heated cylinder, ready for the 41⁄8” bore. The cylinder is then honed to fit the appropriate piston depending on the stroke of the original engine. Kits installed in 92” or 100” engines will be 107” displacement. Stock or stroked 106” engines will end up at 114”.

The S&S cams are not compatible with the 2009 cam carriers so in order to install these cams in the new bikes it is necessary to retro-fit the engine with early style carriers. In addition, some extra parts will need to be purchased and used in the installation. See the chart below. In order to install the S&S 495 cams in any Victory Freedom engine high lift springs need to be installed. The S&S 495 cams and springs are perfect for this application, and are highly recommended.
