I have a zippers built muscle 124" motor.
She is starting to burn some oil wich is creating a ping under hard quick throttle openings.
I need to have the top end done.I dont feel like haulin by bike 5.5 hours to zippers in maryland. The only competent shops near me I have found are Johnson engine tech in RI. or Rosas in huntington ny.
Anyone know or a good shop in CT?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Tim

Dam bikeran great last night in the cooler weather not a ping LOL.
Shame to tear apart the engine.Well if it was always that cool out I might get another year outa the build

 

Wait to you get that big bore 124 in there.You will be smiling from ear to ear.The sheer sound alone will make you wet your paints,but if you look at your checking account that will make you cry!!! lol

 

yes, and they do mostly big ci. builds with great results!

 

Orange and black in watertown. They have an online site not sure the address. MMI grad etc. Very good work.

 

I stopped by Pauls shop in Bristol.
Nice guy knows his motors.
I feel confident he will do a great job freshening up my 124inch orgasm.
Im going to have Ed in the shop behind Riverside Cycle machine that paul rents out(Reds Cycle) pull the motor and do a few other things while its apart.
The motor kicks back pretty hard at times Paul recomends an all ***** starter drive.
Thinking about dressin up the sleeper a bit with a chrome primary.Im not realy big on fancy im more no frills all go not show.

 

He already has it "in there".
He was looking for a shop in Conn., to help touch up the upper end, to cure a couple issues.
