In summary, one company that you would never use because they are out of state has stopped offering the service you would never use, and has been replaced by another company you would never use in another state you would never go to.

And why are you telling us this?

 

Guess there is nothing better to do this cold morning

 

Time for a hot cup of coffee.....

 

It’s worth pointing out that although S&S will no longer reman Your Evo, they still build and sell new Evo engines in various displacements. Sometimes their new engines arrive in an oven box��

 

Omaha, Stop making sense.

 

He keeps doing it, but we still love him!

 

I was cranky this morning, but a couple cups of coffee and an hour spent on a conference call beating up a potential vendor has it out of my system.

Boris0119, I hope my comment wasn't too sharp. Just having fun, you know. Sorry if I was a total dick. I'll frequently be kind of a dick, but if I fell into being a total dick, I apologize.

FWIW, I'm glad Scott/Hillside supports the Evo world. Even is S&S was still in the business, I'd think of Hillside as the better option.

As for S&S, my guess is they got to where they were selling 25 V111's for every rebuild job that came in. Their primary business is as a manufacturer, not a custom shop. I can understand why they made this decision.

My other thought is that, all things considered, it would be hard for me to justify a full rebuild of a stock Evo given the relative affordability of the 111. If your stocker gets worn out, get the S&S and put your stocker in the oven box the 111 came in. If by chance in the long distant future a numbers-matching Evo era bike is actually worth real money, you can always rebuild it and put it back.

 

They don't rebuild Knucks, Pans, or Shovels either. So whats the big deal?.................JK

 

IMHO, that was the only advantage of the S&S (dealer) exchange program. You got a new engine with numbers that matched the original. Handy if the original case is crapped out.

 

So since S&S was kind enough to perform reman for the MoCo, and now that the M8 is out, the MoCo should be kind enough to let S&S make TC cases like OE.
