Gotta scare..
Yesterday I went to the big CBA swap meet down in Charlotte NC. Of all the wore out parts I saw what I didn't see was EVO parts.. I saw lots of TC stuff and plenty of shovelhead parts but, very little, almost nothing for an EVO.

Yeah, I'm thinking that because we don't need parts as much as, say, shovelhead guys (who need parts on a daily or more frequent basis), and there are more twinkies out there, so more parts, that's why you didn't see much evo stuff.

I've reached the point where I'm starting to hoard Evo parts as I find them, "just in case". I blame old age.

The Evo is by far the most reliable motor HD has made, and why they changed it no doubt. It is getting to the point where when a part does break all we can do is find after market parts to exchange them with. I guess original Evo parts fall into one of two categories, they are good and kept or broken and gotten rid of.
I really think the only way of guaranteeing having original Evo parts is to buy a second Evo and keep it for spare parts for the future.
