My Rocker C/Breakout build
I am, bought it last year, According to wife and spreadsheet I put over 7k into it, has a custom painted breakout rear fender, struts etc, I did the gear mod, theres another 1500..lol.. but this is where the real build comes, in , more than look at me....when I ride with my buds, which is often, thats where the funs gonna shine....chrome rims and cable can wait...BUT THEY WILL BE THERE HAHAHAH.,.,.,.after this build is over, around winter, I have a long list starting with suspension first....stay tuned, this is NOT gonna be like any other I guarantee that, I finally got with the right people, and a mechanic shop I TRUST, and a painter,,,, so like I said stay tuned......PAINT
Been apart of the forum for about 8 years, I've rebuild my Rocker twice and I'm working on it for the 3rd time.
Post up your ride in the Rocker picture thread.
Alright it's not a bash thread I didn't go on anyone else's and doubt what a builder whom I don't know could or can't do,why don't you first search and look up some dyno results there all over,and maybe I got an"tad"carried away but 120ho I'll be right there that I KNOW
That's great bud. Go all out and make it your ride. Much respect to those who think outside the box. Don't keep track of what you spend cause you're gonna wanna kick your own butt when you add it up. Lol

low and behold I'm going with a Andrews cam, bob woods is a *****, ill say it just like that, I called him with a problem, guy said I'm making his eggs cold, I will not support a company like that, than he said if I send BRAND NEW CAMS TO HIM, if box has a scratch he's charging me 50-100$$$ who does he think he is???? Andrews makes his cams, and honestly, the more I learn, the 48h,54h, Andrews has better numbers anyway,.....so , its slll good, motor is in the mail checked on my baby today, this is a shop that takes pride, first I left my helmet when I was there, he pulled a bag from a NEW helmet, and put mine in a bag, on his personal shelf, with has towels under it, the helmet is in window, than the pics speak for them selves, my bikes was wrapped so tight, a roach couldn't find his way in there!!!!

actually, final decision was a S&S 570CE Easy Start, I didn't wanna keep pulling those Reliefs up every start,What if it broke out there on road?, and if I forget??? no good,lol.....btw for those who don't know about harlets BEST KEPT BEARING SECRET, they've been shipping there bikes since, not sure when 07 or so, with china made SINGLE row wheel bearings NO GOOD, I have Timken Dual Row, wheel bearings going in 33 buck a pop, all4 are the same, honestly, you don't need Timken's, I just feel my wheel bearing should be as good as it gets, but I've seen pairs of duals for 25 bucks heres some pics of the problems, if you google,youll find stores of front wheel, straight LOCKING UP?????!!!!!
THE CULPRITS, HOW DO YOU INSTALL CHINA MADE SINGLE ROW BEARING IN WHEELS, TIMKENS GOING IN MINE, BUT IVE SEEN THEM AS CHEAP AS 25 A PAIR FOR DOUBLE ROW, THATS WHAT YOU WANT, UNLESS YOU LIKE YOUR WHEEL TO LOCK UP WHEN THAT BEARING FREEZES UP ON YOU,,, TIMKENS ARE 35 A POP, BUT WORTH IT TO ME....Reminds me of there POOR excuse of roller bearings in Cam Assembly, wonder why EVERY manufacture cam install kit comes with Torrington Bearings, or similar,LOL,, Harley and bearings, the cases, they do a Timken Bearing mod as well if you want to see what nice wheel bearings look like these are priced per bearing
