Good job! You'll enjoy the new found power.
The motor spins over slower due to the higher compression. you may find yourself replacing starter clutches. There are heavy duty starter clutches out there that will handle the extra compression. You may have to cruise through the scooter sites to find one. Howett motors came stock with the HD clutch. I can't remember but I belive it was either the dunes or was it the tomberlines?, that came with howett motors.
An oil cooler would be that motor's best friend. The cooler is almost a must to keep the temps in check after such a upgrade.
