I didn't do that one last year, but I did manage to get to Bealieu and there was quite a few Harleys there too!
However, if you can find bealie, you shore as shit, can find Eastleigh which isn't as far! I'll be expecting you there Tony!!
As for bigger valves, I think that a converted 883 with smaller valves give it more mid range stomp than a stock 1200 with little more top end. So unless you are going to do the cam as well, you may be better off keeping the extra oner in your sky rocket, but it's your choice mate!
