Default Garbage Can Find
Ok's boys, Twinkie lost the engine and decommissioned BUT stole a stock low mile CVO SE 103 tonight. Guy from work turned me onto his buddy that removed it for a 120R, got a complete engine for $200 less than a S&S flywheel. I'm happy

Garbage can picks to come, no snow to help slide the can but going to be a man and drag it..........quietly

Had it 2 months

I hope the new lawnmower engine lasts longer than 2 months.

I can't remember if that is inside or outside of the time I bet you would do some modifications to that bike...
Granted I didn't think the mods would be that drastic!!!!!

For your trashcans sake I hope it does!!!!!

I'm guessing the reason you replaced the 88 motor is that you found a problem with the crank...
Is that correct?

I thought that was the only thing truly stout oon those motors.... I could be wrong but up until 2003 it is forged vs pressed.

Never owned one. Not sure I will either., those Milwaukee single cams are awfully nice looking!
