I believe Eastern Performance bought out all the NOS parts from Harley so we can still get anything we need for Evos...

I was sprucing up a '95 Road King a couple of years ago and buying OE parts from Ronnie’s before HD put the kibosh on that.

Ding, ding, ding.....winner! Here's another way to look at it, it's been a quarter of a century since the Evo was in production. Hell the engine that replaced the Evo was replaced 6 years ago.

I am obviously in the minority here, but I don`t have any issues finding parts for my `89 Softail.

Like any old motor vehicle, any brand, you need to learn how to look for parts, the internet makes it easy.


I bought this bike new in Dec. 1988.
