You know I aint trying to scare people. If it goes belly up you got to do what you got to do. Just informing peeps as to the current HD flaws.

Crank in transit from DH. Should be thur or Fri. Then its *** holes and elbows. Rocker arms in transit too. Prolly take me a week assembling the engine in the shop after hours then install and I got a few days off the books comin to me. Will have her broke in in 2 days. Then have about 2 months to work out any bugs on the bike before I take it to Montana. Around 4k round trip and I might swing up to canada to see another friend.

I bought a 107 kit prior to inspecting the crank runout. It turns out it was a little on the high side but well within HD spec. I made the decision to send the crank to DH for true, plug, weld, balance and their rods. Over kill for a mild 107". In hindsight I wish I did the 117". I've personally seen cranks go out with stock 96" and hot 103".

$1190.00 plus shipping. Price goes up if you get fancy H beams and not the import one's.

I did my HQs 107 in Jan 09 - no crank work - 37k miles later not an issue with anything - if it goes (which I doubt) doing a HQs 120 - chicken little syndrome comes from those without - BTW this was the same chit I heard when I did my HQs 103 on 07 SG which is still running strong - way over 40k miles
