the evo engine is rumored to be the best engine ever put out by harley and damn near bullet proof.

how does it stack up with the current twincam? i am not a mechanic so i would be interested in hearing from those "in the know"


edit.... i know i goofed and called the new engine a big twin (which is the evo). i dont know how to edit the thread name to change "bigtwin" to "twincam"

 

It's better. So far.

 

Have to give credit to HD's R&D crew...changes were made for good reason. The TC is still a relatively "young" platform..only time will tell.

 

Every engine has it's faithful, and the following engine was a major let down, and the ruination of all that is good, holy, and true

flathead, knucklehead, panhead, shovel head, evo, twinkie, showerhead. You pick one, the owners swear by 'em

 

very true I loved my pan head and knuckle also twin cam is great and I sure love that push button starter thing .

 

i just ask because some guy supposedly did 1 million miles on his harley and it was an evo engine.

 

Evos rule!!!!!

 

Did over 40,000 miles on my 99 Heritage with the last of the EVO motors. Never a problem. The bike had about $10,000 in accessories and customizing done to it by the time I was done. Did cams and carb and too many other things to list. Bought the 07 Heritage in May of 07. After owning the 96" twin cam for about two months I realized that I wouldn't trade it for my EVO bike even with all the extras that were on it. The EVO was good. The 96" TC is great. JMHO

 

I like my 96" so far, but I just got it........time will tell.......TD

Click on "edit" and "Go Advanced" and you should be able to edit the title.

I've got 40K on my '08 WG with no problems.
