A question that you hear a lot!

I can say, now that I just got done working on a 2003 Ultra with some electrical problems, with proper care this one went 175,000 on the original engine. It was replaced 4,000 miles ago, at the dealer, with a new long block. He said that it still ran ok, but that the bottom end sounded like a bunch of bolts in a coffee can..........LOL.

 

I was gonna say about four seconds if you put it in front of me on my desk, but nevermind.

 

Me too. And they were 10¢. That's how long it's been since I had them.

 

That pretty good. I had a 02 EG that had over 145k when I got rid of it. My pop and I just finished his service this past weekend, his EGS has almost 160k. It's still going, but using oil like a ****. He's hoping for 200k,but I seriously doubt that. It's a ticking time bomb IMO.

 

Depends on how hungry you are.

Twinkies have an unlimited shelf life!

 

That shelf life is pretty low when they're near me.

 

The '02 still had the Timken crank bearing (as did the '99 - '01's.) So perhaps he'll get his 200K. (I sure hope he does, my '00 Road Glide / Road King just hit about 150,000!)

 

This is NOT where I thought this was going.

 

Mine seems to be good for about 40,000 between rebuilds. I don't like mine.
