Yeah, I think this one was at the San Diego Customs tent. Personally I think it's pretty cool to see the legend live on to newer generations.

Huh, that Kraus bike and this item below look similar, wonder if there is any relation.

I'll tell you what, I'd like to have one of these Keanu/Arch bikes, got to be a Hoot

How much work is involved in putting a twin cam in the fxr frame? I ask because I'm getting ready to resurrect my Fxrp and I'm unsure on what direction to go.

A bit. You have to remove a underneath frame crossmember

I remember it was either 01 or 2, there was an FXR2....cant remember but I thought hat came with a twin cam versus an EVO. Maybe someone here knows but I knew a guy who owned one. Was sweet!

A crossmember has to be removed and replaced and that's essentially it.Of course you'll be changing your trans, primary, ignition etc too. If you use an FLT trans you can delete the stock oil pan too for a much cleaner look. YEah FXR 4's did have TC's in them. But there were a few other frame changes on those. Seems hardcore FXr lovers don't consider 4's real FXR's

The CVO FXRs were Evo powered. 2000 FXR3 was the last Harley produced with the Evo. The 2000s did have the 4 piston calipers. Jim's list their TC as being able to fit 91-later bikes. When those engines were initially offered; Jim's listed a mount for Evo powered bikes. I hope that this helps.
