S&S T-111 first impressions

still running good; it has developed what I would describe as TC tick -- mpg is still good 39 - 42 overall an excellent motor --
#16
only up to 05 EFI and 06 Carb'ed -- I don't know what changed on EFI bikes from 05 - 06 -- I would call Star Racing in Americus GA (G-Square) (this may be when the MOCO has a cease and disist against S&S)

Thanks I have my Indy checking into it tomorrow so hopefully I will get some good news... I hadn't thought about changing to a Carb system, but we will see.

Old thread, just curious what you think of your T-111 motor these days (if you're still running it)?
I'm betting the TC-Tick you mentioned is the gear-drive cams. If they're on the loose side, they make a ticking sound when she's all warmed up. If they're on the tighter side, they whine when she's all warmed up.
Mine is on the loose side...I get a slight ticking sound as well when mine warms up.
P.S. I'm only getting 30 to 35 mpgs...might need to pull the S&S E-Carb and slap a CV or Mikuni on it....just saying. The challenge with that is the fact that mine is the IST ignition set-up and there's a bunch of stuff on the intake manifold that might keep me from switching it out...not sure what I would do with all of their sensors and crap with a different manifold and carb.
Hmmmmm???
Cheers,
