I was going to mention that as well. You need a motor that works with the old frame. Did the 05 have a 5 speed still? I mean while you are in their, look at upgrading both.

Something else to consider is that the original VIN/engine number is on a Harley Reman engine case.

ya the HD remans are nice, ask your dealer what the turn around time is. If you can be without your bike for 2 months it's fine, but I can have an S&S on my Indy's door step in 4 days

Take a look at the HD USA website - just change countries when looking at the Canada one. Then go to the 'Owners' tab and select 'Engines'.

The S&S T111 engine is a touring engine and will give you just over 100 HP and TQ, plus a very smooth running engine. Jus' sayin' - as an S&S V107T owner!
