Passion in doing what you all do
I am considering an Airocharger over the other Turbos available as they seam to make the most sense but I have no experience with any Turbo. I like the idea of Turbos as they seam to work well in my airplanes. Low parasitic drag = more usable HP per gallon of fuel. Are the Airocharger units a "Forever" unit (obviously they need to be rebuilt as every moving thing does)?
As stated above I do not do motors & I am just a customer. My question is not about the Turbo but Turbo related. Given S&S 124 stock. I do not have the time to dedicate to this project but maybe a little. Without having to re-buy new parts I wish to address the following. Please could someone answer the following questions from those with experience for me & your readers:
OEM Inner & outer primary, are they strong enough or do they need modification or replacement?
Clutch, I have a few OEM clutches sitting around only which means I need something new (obviously). What will hold up and be reliable? I was thinking about a Bandit Sportsman (big $). I have one on my FXR for many years with no problems. Due to less static weight & lower inertia value than a Bandit, would the Bandit Bagger Belt drive work and be reliable. I ran a Belt drive back in the 70's and was a very unreliable POS.
Swing Arm, will a later model OEM 06~13 work or do I have to build my own? I see the current aluminum swing arms available are not acceptable to me.
I am happy
that Jerry was able to save Airocharger from extinction as lawyers tend to destroy whatever they get involved with. Thank you to all of you in advance.

Thank you to all of you in advance.I run the bandit bagger belt drive on my bike with a S&S124 they do not offer a outboard bearing support for that drive and told me maybe this winter when things slow down they can make me one. I would diffently run a system with a outboard support if you want to go belt drive with a airocharger.

The stock Harley clutch is very strong. I am running my stock Harley clutch on my 11 Procharged 120R SG @ over 230HP with only the addition of a SE locker and no problems so far with almost 10K hard running miles.
