Don't get me started on that BS! What kills more, the swine flu, or regular old flu? Goddamn liberal jew media, queer sympathisers, and the lesbian orthadontists(<====hillbillytalk)!

Sucks to hear about the bike man!

wow! never snapped a wrist pin, but I feel your pain, I spun a main bearing on mine last year running alcohol. She was fast as hell for about 10 mins, and then it stopped with a bang! It's a good thing you caught it early and didn't try to limp it home, could have gotten a lot worse. good luck, hope you find some ways to free up some ponies while you're in the motor.

Correction. Called the shop this morning and it's a wrist ring on top of the piston. Still bad but not as bad as a wrist pin. Scratched the bottom of the cylinder. Will still probably need pistons but maybe the cylinder can be saved. Wondering about a 1450 cc kit. Breakin down enough already. If it comes to it might go with the 1250 in black. Reallllly don't wanna spend that much on her. Fun as hell for the past year but I'm dating again after being married sooooo another Road King would be nice. If only I made enough to keep 2.

Well apparently my piston wanted to be an anniversary edition.....cuz it's awful copper colored......it is now a $1200.00 ashtray. Batting around the idea of Millenium cylinders.
