Default Tp engineering motor

Hey forum,

I have been looking at a 1996 road king that has a TP engineering 121" motor w/6 speed trans. Total miles on the bike is 27,000 with 4,500 on the mtor and trans.(All paperwork is good) The bike is very clean with lots of chrome goodies. It has a bad *** set of super trap duels on it as well. Asking price is 10,000. I have NO knowledge of this engine. What do you guys think...?? Any imput would great!!!! Thanks..

Eddie..

Sounds like a screamer at a great price! If your nervous have a shop do a inspection.

the tp motors were built with the very best components, and are extreme quality. they're also a very high priced motor.

Thumbs up TP Eng motor

Buddy of mine had a custom built with a TPE 121" motor. The thing was an absolute monster , and as far as I could tell, was bullet-proof.

He rode it hard and never had a problem. I'd say you have a great opportunity.

Have fun - be safe!
