Don't look like a Harley motor to me. Harley's have two pushrods per cylinder, all I see is one tube.

I don't get spending the money on these big engines - do guys actually race their cruisers, or are these just for looks and bragging rights, while they ride on the highway at the same speed as the TC 88's?

I don't get not getting big engines. I also don't get clicking on a thread and then commenting on something you don't get just to make sure everyone knows you don't get it.

They say there's 3 things you can't have too much of: cubic inches, money and sex. Somebody wants 200 ci, go for it.

That could be a D on that motor.Obviously you have never heard of the "King of Cubes" Randy Torgeson or R&R Cycles. You ever hear of the 190" 205" or the latest yet to be run 260" machines these guy are involved in?
