Default Ultima

I have the 124" Ultima. Had it in the bike (1998 Electra Glide Classic) for a year and 17000 miles. Rods came loose on the crank. I had to pull the motor and send in to Mike at Ultima, but they covered shipping both ways and completely went through the motor (I am taking their word on this), even though the warranty was out 6 months prior to incident. So, I am glad they stepped up, but I am hoping that I don't have a major incident every riding season!

Tom at TP Engineereing is waiting for your call, my 121 is zooming along perfectly just had them dyno it out.... Wow. But sorry for your troubles sucks to be down in the middle of the season. Nice Ultima is standing behind their motor.

Ya Ya Ya, I hear you but leaving in a couple of days to Siesta Keys for vacation, hopefully the heads will be at my house when I get home and have it running shortly but going to take it easy to charge my batteries back up.

Maybe doing something stupid but going Hammerhead and Goliath Grouper fishing, have a friend from Ohio that relocated to Florida and has a larger boat. Hey landing a 400 lb Goliath Grouper might be as challenging as getting the heads off the 127" in the bike, hell it might be easier

Give me 60 to 70 horsepower everyday, ALL day, that only wants fuel and oil changes over all the big inch motors combined.

Give me 60 horsepower and I'm looking for a pull rope to start it.

Most likely will be yelling for one of the young guys after 5 minutes of getting my butt kicked by a fish.

It's true. I'd ride one with a rope start and a milk crate bolted to the back
