I just bought me a FlHT 1990 , no maching numbers , can someone help me to know what kind of engine this is , the bike was made ​​for the USA and imported to Europe , all i now
is a bit of a Frankenstein bike







thanks

 

No idea but you cut out what the cylinders say at the base because of the shift rod. It almost looks as if the numbers have been painted over. Anyway, it's a great looking bike

 

Interesting bike, which a PO has had some fun with. The tank is actually off an '87 IIRC, celebrating the Centenary of the Statue of Liberty. My tourpak below came off one, which a heathen broke up to customise! I'm not sure those cylinders are stock, what is written across the base of them, behind the shifter rod?

 

Paint looks like 1986 Liberty Edition Tour Glide to me.

Check the VIN on the frame. Plug the vin into Harley's site and it will give the information about it.

Post a picture of the timing cover. A lot of times it will have identifying information about it.

 

"NITROALLOY"

In the other pic is a number in de cases "N10USA96" en "PAT PEND "

thanks

 

nothing on the timing corer

 

Mmmmmm! The number "N10USA96" suggests to me they were made in 1996, so may be over-size, such as an 85" conversion kit, which gives increased CR hence performance.

The timer cover in your photo is actually the inner cover, the outer cover is missing, normally held on with rivets in the upper and lower holes.

 

thank you , 85" maybe 95" ??

do i need to replace de cover ?

 

Evos don't have the same scope to increase capacity as the twincams. They are actually 82" when new and an 85" 'kit' is simply max rebore size. Longer stroke cranks are available, which with stock bore give 89", but using them with larger bore cylinders is dependent on suitable pistons being available and I haven't come across them.

Yes, do fit the outer timer cover, at present those two small holes in the inner are exposing your ignition sender to rain etc.

 

You can either fit the "stock" cover which attaches to your inner cover with blind rivets in the two existing holes, or you could get any of a number of more "decorative" two-hole timer covers which would replace your inner cover altogether (you might need to source new screws to fit the new cover).
