OK, I'll bite. Yes, it is a 2 cylinder engine. The cylinders are arranged in a V shape, hence the name "V-Twin".

Do you have the Harley-Davidson Extended Service on your bike? You might want to get it instead of working on the bike yourself.

Send them here

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_Ca...rley-Davidson)

Here is a quote

"The Harley-Davidson Twin Cam 88 engine was released for the 1999 model year in September 1998. The Harley-Davidson Twin Cam 96 was released for the 2007 model year. Although these engines were the successors to the Evolution engine ("Evo"), they share a number of characteristics with nearly all previous Harley-Davidson engines. Both engines have two cylinders in a V-twin configuration at 45 degrees, are air-cooled, and control valve timing with push-rods. The crankshafts have a single pin with a tongue and fork arrangement for the connection rods. These are sandwiched between a pair of flywheels."
