Thoughts on S&S Cycle 124 in. Hot Set Up Kits with Heads
Came across this kit and thought it was pretty neat making the stock motor a 124". Anybody with experience on this kit or what they heard. Not looking at actually doing it, just thought it was cool haha (ok maybe thought about it LOL!)
Out of the box with no alterations (head porting, different cams) it makes passing cars interesting - looking over your shoulder to see if it is clear to change back only to see the car a lot farther back than expected.
Built 15, 4 1/8" bore engines(117", and 124") since mid-December.
One of the last ones was a carbed set-up that rode 4 hrs. home to Woodbridge, NJ.
139/151, with an S&S .640, our Stage I S&S Heads, Thunderjet, 40 mpg, and the oil does not get above 180*.

How is the reliability of a motor like that. I like to ride allot and dont want to be rebuilding it all the time.
Daily driver, pump gas friendly.
Client picked that one up and rode it 4-4 1/2 hrs to his home, interstate riding.....180 degree oil temp.......very tame.
