Knuclehead,Panhead,Shovelhead,Blockhead, Does anyone know of a nickname for the twincam 96

 

Big Twin?

 

I've heard the TC-88 and 96 called "Fat Head." But I think the commonly accepted nickname would be "Twin Cam."

 

They're called twinkies.

 

Double Duece comes up often around these parts.

 

It's a Fathead, more commonly referred to as a Twinkie.

I don't get the reference. "Double Deuce" just means 22, doesn't it?

 

I don't get the "twinkie" reference either.

 

Twinkie just doesn't cut it!!! I like the fathead though. I believe they are all big twins ! It seperates us from a sportster. I'm gonna call it a fathead Thanx
