Default How many miles are on your 88 c.i.?

Lets see how many miles you have on your 88 c.i. and without having any problems with it? I have 28000 on my 01 Heritage so far (knock on wood)..They sure seem like bullet proof motors from what I hear from anybody

does it count if it came out of the dealership as a 95"? If so, 70K. Stator @ 35K, tensioners @ 50K. 2003 Ultra.

I had 45,000 trouble-free miles on my '04 Ultra when it was totaled by a daydreaming cager.

Mine went to the 25k mark until it needed lifters.

My '05 EGC had 92k on it when a hit n run driver took me out in Nov '08. She was running like a champ and I was looking forward to turning 100k...

My '06 88ci is an oil leaker, but other than gaskets and seals it is running good at 10k. Bought it 1.5 yrs ago with 5800 on it but has leaked oil ever since. Shift shaft seal mostly, now the rear rocker cover seal is leaking and will get fixed with the 10k service. Otherwise nothing major.

I know it isn't a lot of miles compared to others, but yet still an example that Moco doesn't make a perfect motor.

30000 on my 04 FXD. No problems yet. runs like a top. But curious if the 35-40 PSI oil pressure is normal at 100 Kmph?
