Default Well I've gone & done it!!

Have been in touch thru emails and phone conversations will Scott from Hillside Motorcycle these past few weeks. Did my homework & research on builders and decided on Scott @ Hillside...and I gotta say he knows his ****! I made the appt and took the 5 hour ride to drop off my 2009 Roadglide w/ 96" today, I decided on a 107 build. After meeting Scott in person, he discussed everything again from soup to nuts about my particular build... his shop is filled with ported engine heads, fixtures he has made, porting machines, a flow bench, customers builds...& so much more! After leaving him & my bike at his shop I feel confident the build will be done right! If your considering an engine upgrade...give Scott a call at Hillside...you won't be sorry!!
