It was such a glorious Friday until my trans blew in Bloomingdale. Tear

isn't your bike fairly new? why did it go through 2 transmissions along with having a host of electrical issues?

Decided to finally fix the slow leak in my rear tire. Found a small nail dealer informs me they don't patch. New rear tire mounted and balanced $330...ouch!

Also noticed my Rush slip ons making some noise and getting some discoloring on one side so I pulled the baffles to find the packing is basically fucked. Oh well I guess it's to be expected after 7 years. Bad news is these mufflers have long been discontinued...so I ordered some V&H black Eliminator slip ons. Hopefully get the bike back together tomorrow afternoon.

Don't tell me what to do! Haha
That's fuckin crazy awesome, but $8k is a little more than I want to spend on a build for a Harley. My bike is currently just a stage 1 bike that most likely puts down 80 hp. The 115 hp of the 107 build will be a very noticeable increase and make for a fun ride IMO.
126 FTW

150 rwhp would help us pass a truck !

That, or help with my wheelie game...lol

agreed for the most part. my built 103 puts down 108 horse 110 torque and it does all i need it do, including the most important part, leaving my father in law in the dust. but everyone always wants more.

Bike all buttoned up and remapped for the pipes. Sounds much more aggressive than the old Rush setup b

Waiting on a new trans case, got a new 5th gear too plus a few new transmission parts. With a bit of luck I'll get it back next week.
