Awesome build Master Tech Miller!! I turn 62 next month and buying a new Harley Low Rider ST for my birthday. My last bike was a 2007 842 lb street glide with the monster 88 Vtwin 🤣. Being much older I wanted a lighter bike I could ride around town and also go on two - three hour cruises. I can't imagine how much fun the stock 117 engine will be and I am not going to do a thing but add new pipes. You are one badass with that engine build. I think that engine would pull the tendons out of my shoulder when I twisted the throttle. In any event have fun mate and safe travels. And changing the subject, I am a musician and have tinnitus from too much loud noise over the years. Make sure you protect your hearing especially when working on these monster engines everyday. Tinnitus is no joke and having permanent ringing in my ears sucks so just want fellow riders and musicians to be aware of this condition and protect your hearing. PS.....you have a new subscriber. Love your channel. You rock brotherman!!

Thanks for reaching out & leaving a comment! Much appreciated. Good luck with the new bike, I am sure there will be plenty of smiles per miles! The hearing is no joke that is for sure! I already have a mild case of tinnitus which does not seem to be progressing as yet. I am always wearing hearing protection in the dyno room as with a gas mask. Cheers again for watching!

what an absolute monster, even with a 2-into-2. good lord

Amazing build. Come to the states and build us that beast. I also think 2-1 looks like a leaf blower and I prefer 2-2 but it's just different preference.

If miss used and abused, any drive trains components will fail even if they're a tough aftermarket option. Thr OEM compensator has been replaced with the billet steel option & the clutch has the upgraded 1275nm springs in it. For day to day riding around & having the off bit of 'fun' the OE transmission will be fine. Sure they're known to break 3rd gear from time to time but that was a risk the owner wanted to take at this stage.

I would love to hear the warm idle but from the little sound before you started the dyno process she sounded mean angry. Now on the power is what I would love to have on cruising/touring speeds low rpm meaning longevity sort of😂😂

Keeping in mind the purpose of the engine. It was built to make hp & go fast. That being said, there is no reason this engine shouldn't last as long as any other big bore high output build. I always recommend halfing the service intervals when any big bore engine work is done. If you want a 143ci engine that is made for touring, I would lower the compression ratio & choose a different cam shaft.
