That 131 ain't what it's cracked to be. They are seeing a very high failure rate from what an internal source told me.

I'm having trouble evaluating the information in your post...

What is "131" a reference to?
Who is "they"?
What kind of failures are "they" seeing?
Who/What is your "internal source"?
How trustworthy is the source?

More importantly why is that comment in a subforum about 750's?

I'm looking at the Harley factory service manual for all 2017 XG Street series bikes. On page 4-3 of the engine chapter it lists the weight at 155 lbs for both the XG750 and the XG750A Street Rod.

I have about 150 pounds of weight. I read it in my documentation. By the way, depending on the size and weight of the engine is selected, of course, and the appropriate components and so on. The same engine oil, for example. That's why I personally, before buying anything for my old Harley, try to see first the description of the different sides, for example, how to care for him and so on, it will be useful for everyone to read All for Harley allforharley.com before you take it or change anything there. So be sure to study some aspects of care beforehand, you can find a lot of useful information. I am still a beginner in fact, I got Harley from my father, so I had to learn recently.
