I don't understand how one type of primary would transfer power better than another.

I'm thinking about building a rigid bike too. I like the challange of making your own parts for the bike, fan of Indian Larry style bikes.

All the best on your new bike

To the OP: I dig your new bike. I'm getting to the point where I'm thinking about building a rigid as a second bike.

I traded my Road King in for a Superglide because it is what I wanted to ride and love it.
