Here's the work done to my case.

Fitted was a brand new 4 5/8" S&S crank..

I have pics of the pistons and cylinder heads as well. Not sure of the actual cubic inch but it's supposed to be right around 96". the pistons are 30* angle tops to fit the stage III heads (roughly a 94 cc head) bench tested they are flowing 283 cfm and trying to keep 10.3:1 static with my cam. a special Woods grind... I don't want real high compression anymore. After shearing my last crank pin i want to keep it real... Talked to Scott today and it should be coming home on Sunday the 7th...

Cool, that ought to be a great running motor. Be sure to post some more when you get it together. Maybe start a new thread, this custom section is starving for some input!

I will update as I start putting it all back together but most likely it will be in the Evo section. It's really not a custom but a mod.

From time to time I hear of guys saying that they're doing a build ground up but don't understand why they don't use this forum.... Maybe not too many doing it anymore... Don't know but it would be cool to see.

I know there's a couple of guys in the Shoveled section that are customizing their old shovel frames.

Too many instant bikers buying cookie cutter bikes.

Last bike show I went to, I couldn't believe the number of people walking around in shiny clean leather without a bug on them anywhere. Makes me shake my head.
