There are a couple of Powersports in Austin TX. If you are talking about the one on Stassney Ln. they do great work.
The cheapest I have found is Antler Creek Cycle Leathers.

If he can find it in a catalog he sells it for 10-20% less than they ask for in the catalog.
Geoff is good people but the only thing he keeps stock on hand is leathers and helmets. He can order in anything you want though.

Evo green and black dot gear owners
While putting in the recent purchases of Andrews adjustable rods, Johnson lifters and Andrews ev27 I read something I had not read or been told. For those Evo owners whose engines contain green or black dot gears the common ev27 i.e. 291127 is not what your or my bike needs. It appears that our gears or oversized and therefore require different part number. I sure hope the seller agrees to an exchange as I recommended them in this forum. Disappointed that I could not get it done tonight. Hopefully all goes well tomorrow and she rides like she is on fire. Also installed new stock ignition as the wax on the old one had finally caused the bike to run badly. Caution, if you see melted wax change it.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thankfully I was near home and therefore drove home with no problems.

Evo green and black dot gear owners
I will scan and post the information sheet which came with the cam. Yes the ev27 is made for the Evo but there are different model numbers to take care of the bikes made after 1990 which have either green or black dots on them indicating the oversize from the factory. I was under the same impression you are but after comparing the gears, measuring with digital caliper and placing the new cam into the pinion gear grooves it is obvious that it does not fit my bike as presently constituted.
If anyone is contemplating the purchase of an Andrews ev27 you need to check your cam and pinion to make sure of the fit. I will post by early evening.

use same gear
texas hill that is correct. when I discussed the need for a different pinion gear a mechanic at the dealership suggested that for $24.00 I could just have my old gear pressed unto the new cam. 20 minutes and I was out. I will post it either later tonight or in the am.

Do you know if you have green or black dot gears? otherwise the problem does not exist.

Actually at the time I did mine I didn't know about this trick when I did mine.
Neither my stock cam nor the EV-27 had any color dot on them.
I have learned a bunch about Harley's since I did mine and if I had to do it over I would do it differently.
Basically all I did was pull the stock cam and replace it with the EV-27. There was an annoying whine for a few thousand miles but it went away.

I found a link which has the Andrews install info sheet. You need to scroll down, then click on a PDF link. Here's the url http://www.hognutz.com/engine-cams/926/
Texas,
Thanks for mentioning pressing on the original gear. I never thought of that! I have a 12 ton press in my garage

PanHeadRich,
We'll I finally got around to ordering my EV27 cam. Based on your and other's input. I can't wait to see the changes in performance - with the old Road King. It will be nice having more power to pass semi's with now
Next up is ordering up the Andrews adjustable lifters.
