120" Ultima Problems?
A friend just asked me about his 120" with approx 1K on the clock.When his reaches operating temps it starts losing power,and making a funny sound.I know it is not much to go on,I have not seen it.Just trying to get an idea of what we could look for.He says the motor only has 1 vent hose,that by itself does not sound right.Grasping for straws!!!

What chassis is it in? "Funny sound" is a little vague, Is it a grinding, a squeaking or what. How is the oil pressure? Where does the noise appear to be comming from? How is his compression? Take the plugs ou and torn the motor over by hand, how does it feel? See if you can get a little more input.

Vassalboro,Maine is above Augusta.Talking to my friend,he says letting the bike set a very short time it starts and runs great.When it gets hot it starts the problem over again.This problem he is having just started happening.It sounds to me without physically seeing,hearing the motor,like maybe the pistons are starting to seaze when it gets hot.Unless I hear otherwize a topend teardown is in order.
