Head Porting
Havingsome warranty work done on bike and figured while the top end was off I might as will do some porting on the heads and found out that exhaust valves were trying to stick, checked clearance on valveguides and they were under factory spec.5/16 valves are supposed to be .002 thousandthsclearance and on my heads they were. .0- .001 and thats on the SE. FXSTSSE the best you can buy! Looks like Harley needs to pay more attention to engine building program! I would have been surprised if my bike made it another 5000miles. I have 4000 on it now. But at least now I can rest assured that my bike wont blow up because the heads were fu**ed up! I work @ the highest standards.And work for Avery reputable cylinder company and work for the best high performance cylinder head manuf. in the world.
P.S. Twin cam 96in. heads are even worse! I ported some of those too.
