has any one tried these lifters in their Harley Evo or TC motor? They do not have needle bearings at the roller and I would think that that would be a pretty good upgrade, going to a solid bushing roller. I know that I have heard of some TC motors destructing because of the lifter needle bearing letting go but I've never heard of an Evo destructing in this manner and would love to hear... I know they're pretty pricey @ $320 a set but would it be worth it? I know I only posted the link for an Evo but they do also make them for a TC motor as well.... Any one ever try them? Pros/cons?

Jims had them in Cinci a couple years ago. Dont know if they ever made it into production.
Isky has them for the HD market. They were designed more as a race lifter. You could use them in a street bike but I think its overkill.
