Looks like a really nice bike mud. What are the liquid filled rims? What is the benefit? |

self balancing, no weights. The company is actually out of bis right now in fact. The rims were almost $1000.00 a piece but the are 80 spokes and look great. |

Very nice. Here's mine, although its a Dyna wide glide. Stage 2 cams, filter, pipe. Quick for an old 80ci evo. Of course with any bike, the pics do not do it justice, cant even see the flake in the silver.

Rear jug base gasket is leaking on the Engine, so I am going to tear it down over the winter and do some upgrades as well. I am going to install cam kits in the Engine and also look into a better piston set. The Engine is an EVO and the mounts are NOT rubber so I also might look into purchasing an aftermarket kit for this. |

Might go with the Screaming Eagle kit on the top end here. |

Update: Took some time over the winter to look into a slight problem I was having with backfiring on deceleration. I check compression check revealed the back base gasket on the cylinder was leaking. This is a typical problem the EVO'S have. Since I had 20,000+ miles on the Engine and I just can't be normal I went full bore. I took the Engine out and brought it to a local EVO Engine guru for a total reworking. I went 10.5-1 pistons, cam kit,cam bearings,bigger intake and exhaust valves, 41mm Kiehin, jet kit,new D&N air induction kit, split the bottom end, new bearings, rods,single fire ignition with rev limiter, the works. I am going to have the Engine dyno tuned as well but expected horsepower will be 35-40 increased.Projected costs are in the 2500.00 to 3000.00 range. I just cant do it half cocked, I need to go in "mad deep" as my employees tell me Mad deep wtf is the world coming too huh?? |

Had the Engine completely rebuild and dyno jetted. 10.5 to 1 Wiseco,s vavles, cams, fresh bore,exhaust, everything, new 41mm Mikuni,air filter. Bottom line was pre-rebuild, top line is current performance. You can the results, dam thing is lightning quick!!
