2006 Night Train Engine Noise HELP!!!
Could some one give me your two cents on this.
I bought a 2006 Night Train about 2 months ago at auction it that runs really good pulls real hard starting at about 2500 rpm. The problem I hear is coming from the cam area. (I think)
Its sounds like its rattling kinda, when you shut it off is sounds like shutting down a cummings diesel. RRRRR. I had myself so worked up I took it to a local Harley guy that races top fuel harleys and left it with him for a few days he calls me and says that that it is fine, but someone dumped some cash into the motor and what he found was the following.
Delkron Big Bore Kit
Delkron Cam plate
Delkron oil pump
S&S Gear Drives
Andrews 67HG Cams (not sure how he knew this)
Arlene Ness Big Sucker
Thunderhead header (i think that is what he called it)
He also said Delkron cam plates are loader sometimes and with the big cams its going to make noise.
He also said it has 105 lbs of compression on both cylinders oil pressure when hot at idle is 30 lbs and 50 lbs at 2500-3000 rpm.
He fired up one of his top fuelers and says now that's engine noise, yours is fine Its sounds like a machine just ride it and enjoy it.
The bike runs like a bat out of hell just noisy. I don't mind the noise if it's ok. My dad has a 2000 Heritage soft tail and it sounds like a sewing maching nothing like mine. It does not run like mine either.
I don't have a tach but it hits the rev. limit but still feels like it's pulling hard and has more to go. Any thoughts on that?
Any idea's or comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks to anyone who comments.
