    im with you chriso.  i rather ride with someone on a postie bike that throws his leg over for the actually ride, rather than what he looks like. 

    edit:  im pretty sure funny diesel story i heard involved a breakout.  lol.  

    I’ll ride with the postie guy too but come on guys, you’re telling me if say Peter Fonda turns up on Captain America, one of the purest form over function bikes ever made, not even a front brake, you ain’t gonna ride with him?
    Naaa your bullshitting me.

    Hi Hoodeng, sounds like your building some good things, this bike had 10.5 pistons, not sure if 10.7’s were around in 2014, but your description of how the bike would ride is spot on. 
    I did like the rest of the bike but yeah, those big radius are crap, way too loud so add a cam swap, pipes and retune and a few other bits, the bike was getting up to 38k. Confess I have big radius on my stock 110 but I’m currently welding up new baffles, aiming for <94Db. 
    Cheers.

    I'm not sure what the wannabe's are chriso, are they the ones that dress up like gay pirates?

    If they are then you could probly apply that logic to most HD models lol.

    Don't get me started on that tourer crowd......

    if your looking for the best of both worlds type cam set might pay to look at TMan 662-2ps2 the cams work very well for a best of both worlds cam set 
    Just my opinion I do know a few guys that use this cam set and they all swear by them Granted they are on Breakouts so hard riding isn't there thing Tight fast twisty stuff and breakout don't mix im told

    This thread is a classic example of what makes this forum so good. There’s always a good mix of opinions, banter and straight up helpful info.

    spot on i would ride with him. customised his own bike for himself. not others.  rides for himself. not others. didn’t rely on the MoCo to build him a “custom” harley for him to want to look like a bad ass.  Lol.

    I agree they do look pretty spiffy but after seeing some the things that went wrong with the early versions while working for HH in Adelaide I soon steered away from them. No doubt they have rectified a lot of the early issues for the later models but the most common thing we replaced on early versions was front bearings they absolutely chopped out front tyres and the other common thing was the side starter switch. The grub screw that held on the black switch vibrated itself loose and bang the switch would fall off half way through a ride.
