Engine Builders in Seattle area?
I'm looking for a qualified shop to install a Fuel Moto 107" kit on my 2011 FLHTC. Does anyone know a good shop in the greater Seattle area?
Thanks,
Pete

My family and friends use Harry Perry in Puyallup, and he does excellent work. Met him last summer when he was finishing up some things on my old man's bike. Do not believe he has a website, but contact info is below.

Most any well equipped shop can bore the OE cylinder to 3.937", and set you up with a cam that deliver what/when/where you want it, along with installation.
Cylinder head work will only enhance even more.
I don't know how others operate, but we have a sign behind the counter saying this;
"Do you bring bagged potatoes and ground beef to McDonalds?
We didn't think so...........
Our business here is baised on the sales and installation of the high-quality parts we provide.
Thank you."

Maybe you should change the sign to be more honest. Something like, "We are trying to gouge you for all we can, so we will not install the parts you bought at a good price somewhere else."

When you go to a professional they should use the tools and parts they like. They should control the whole process, and then they should back up their work.
If you are a respected shop like Hillside, you don't have to do it the wrong way. Hillside probably uses McDonalds as an example, because he is trying to educate cheap people.

You're drawing a comparison of your bike business to McDonald's? Interesting. They are all about volume. That and health codes are why you can't bring potatoes and ground beef into the "restaurant." If you actually want a good burger, McDonald's is not where you go to get that.

I have to say you come off as a cheap asshat!! It's people like you that help put Indy shops and dealers out of business!!

Why would that be a better question? Why would I ask a generic question when I have a specific need? Go troll someone else's post......
